Namilco Football Festival…

Two semi-final spots to be decided tonight

Tonight action will continue at the Tucville Playfield in the Fruta Conquerors organized Namilco Football Festival Knockout Competition with the final two quarter-final matches to be contested in what is promised to be a thrilling double header.
Alpha United and Bakewell Buxton Stars will collide in the curtain-raiser which commences at 6pm while Bakewell Top XX will go up against Sunburst Camptown in the feature match of the evening.

Alpha United defeated Mahaica Determinators in the first round to advance to the quarter-final whilst Buxton Stars eliminated defending champions Guyana Defence Force (GDF) which means that a new Namilco champion will be crowned.
On the other hand BK International Western Tigers tore apart Pele to make their way into the semi-final round.
Fruta Conquerors have also entered the semis after defeating Georgetown Football Club (GFC) in one of the two quarterfinal matches contested on Sunday evening at the Tucville Playfield.

This leaves Fruta Conquerors and Western Tigers to collide in the first semi-final on Friday November 7 while the places for the other semi are to be decided this evening.
