In the only match yesterday at the Providence National Stadium, defending champions of the Guyana Hockey Board (GHB) Farfan & Mendes Men’s first division league, Bounty GCC, needed only one goal to ensure that they gave themselves a chance to retain their title.
Coming up against second-placed YMCA Old Fort in a qualifier where the winner would automatically head to the final, Bounty GCC scored the game’s only goal in the 12th minute of the first half. Dwayne Scott, a veteran of the Bourda-based club, would convert a penalty corner to put his team 1-0 up, a position from which they never moved.
