Kaieteur Sports – Berbice has come alive relentless, high-octane Tapeball action as the Berbice Zone of the Lotto / Let’s Bet Sports One Guyana T10 Tapeball Blast, which bowled off yesterday, continues today.
Organised by FL Sport, the tournament’s fourth season lands in the Ancient County as an ideal curtain-raiser for a bumper national sports calendar. Action starts simultaneously at 10:00 AM across all locations with free entry for spectators.
The entire show shifts exclusively to the Albion Sports Complex today, August 9, where the tournament transitions into prime time under floodlights. Semi-Final 1 pits the winners of the No. 69 and Port Mourant brackets against each other at 2:00 PM, followed by Semi-Final 2 at 4:00 PM featuring the survivors from Albion and Welfare. The last two teams standing will collide in the Berbice Zonal Final at 7:30 PM to crown the regional champion.

Sixteen community sides will launch straight into an uncompromising knockout bracket across four iconic grounds, all vying for local supremacy, financial rewards, and a cherished ticket to October’s National Finals.
There is significant money on the line to match the drama. Backed by primary zonal sponsor SAWA alongside the Guyana Cup and Scoop, the tournament guarantees financial rewards for deep runs. Losing quarter-finalists pocket G$25,000, losing semi-finalists take G$50,000, and the defeated zonal finalist earns G$200,000.
The Berbice Zone champion will walk away with a G$500,000 cheque and passage to the national stage.
Beyond the Boundary, title sponsors Guyana Lottery Company—through their Lotto and Let’s Bet Sports brands—will feature interactive promotional giveaways and fan activations throughout the weekend, alongside a special raffle offering entry to the upcoming Guyana Cup horse racing showcase.
The ultimate target for all 16 Berbice teams is the national grand finale on October 11, 2026, which features a G$2,000,000 top prize and will be staged at the newly constructed Anna Regina National Stadium in Essequibo for the first time. Following this weekend’s Berbice opener, the tournament travels to East Bank/West Demerara on August 15–16 and Essequibo on August 22–23, before pausing for the Republic Bank Caribbean Premier League and resuming in Georgetown/East Coast Demerara across late September and early October.
