Tournament favorite Hard-Knocks clinched the New Era Entertainment/Mohamed’s Enterprise Futsal Championship, downing NK Ballers in the grand final on Saturday at the Mackenzie Sports Club (MSC) Tarmac, Linden.   

The contest mirrored the earlier semifinal meeting with Dave & Celina’s, as a combined 33 goals were registered, a record for a local Futsal final.

Golden Jaguars international Pernell Schultz resumed his goal scoring exploits from the previous round, captivating the large crowd, as he capitalized on the lack of defensive structure to fire in seven goals in the 20-13 victory.
