In what has become a customary activity, the Petra Organisation, coordinators of the ExxonMobil Boy’s and Girl’s U-14 Football Championship, donated footballs to the competing schools in an effort to aid their preparatory phase.

This simple but significant presentation occurred yesterday at the National Racquet Centre on Woolford Avenue and Camp Street. The competing schools were presented with a football for each of their divisional teams. The tournament, which will now commence on May 25th due to the overwhelming support from respective schools, will be staged at the Ministry of Education ground, Carifesta Avenue.

Troy Mendonca, Co-Director of the Petra Organisation, stated that he was inspired by the response from the competing schools and thanked the students and the teachers for their unwavering commitment to the programme.
