If the draw is anything to go by, the winner of today’s Brian Tiwari birth anniversary 9-a-side Inter-Ward football tournament, should be a team from West Demerara.
That is because West Demerara boast several teams in the 12-team competition which will get cracking at 4pm this afternoon at the Leonora Community Centre ground.
The opening six games will determine the teams advancing to the money round.
West Demerara teams such as Pouderoyen, Crane, Den Amstel, Den Amstel Kings and Wales will obviously be gunning to keep the prize money on the West side.
A number of quality players such as Trayon Bobb and Delon Lanferman will be on show in the tournament which has been organized by former national coach Lennox Arthur in recognition of Tiwari’s birthday.
The first prize is $200,000 and the Bradley Gabriel trophy, while second, third and fourth place finishers will take home $100,000 and the Kane Gabriel trophy, $60,000 and $40,000 respectively.
The fixtures are as follows:
Wales vs. Soesdyke
Gaza vs. Plaisance
Pouderoyen vs. Hurry Ate
Den Amstel Kings vs. Timehri
Den Amstel vs. Crane
West Side Spartans vs. Casa Coima
