Rain had the final say on the opening night of the Xtra Beer ‘Ballers in the Summer’ Street Football Championship, washing out the scheduled eight elimination matches on Friday at the Pouderoyen Market Tarmac.
The constant rainfall forced the tournament coordinators, Second Ground Entertainment, to reschedule the start of the event, as the playing area was unsuitable and dangerous for the competitors.
The tourney will now commence today at the same venue with 14 matches. The opening fixture will pit Rising Stars against Speed Boat at 6:00hrs while North Ruimveldt will oppose Silver Shattas at 6:30hrs and Tucville will oppose Tiger Bay at 7:00hrs.
