Trinidad and Cayman Islands in exciting clash
By Calvin Roberts
Tournament hosts Guyana find themselves in a must-win situation when they oppose Jamaica in the final round of the Demlife/Tropical Rhythm-sponsored North America West Indies Rugby Association (NAWIRA) Women’s 15-a-side Rugby tournament which climaxes at the National Park, tomorrow.
Having defeated debutantes Cayman Islands by a 41-0 margin in their first round encounter, the hosts were then held to a five- all draw by Trinidad, the youngest team in the competition.
That outcome can be deemed a setback taking into consideration that the Jamaicans had escaped with a 12-7 victory over the Cayman Islands earlier in the day.
Guyana and Trinidad are locked at the top of the table with five points each whilst number-one ranked Jamaica are on four and The Cayman Islands two.
However, the Guyanese have a plus four goal difference compared with the Trinidadians plus two and need to come away with a victory against the Jamaicans tomorrow, if they are to come out on top in the tournament as the possibility of The Cayman Islands defeating Trinidad is similar to that of carrying water in a basket.
