The East Ruimveldt Community Centre Tarmac commonly known as California Square will now be the venue for the playoff round of the 2017 Guinness ‘Greatest of the Streets’ football tournament tomorrow from 18:00hrs.

According to Three Peat Promotions, coordinators of the annual tournament, the three-day elimination event was moved from the Meadowbrook Tarmac due to the unpredictable weather pattern currently being experienced.

“The move became necessary because the playing condition at the original venue is almost unplayable when it rains due to the slippery surface. The surface, which is concrete in nature, poses a serious threat to players when the rain falls and it is because of this concern we have decided to switch the venue. We apologize for any inconvenience the switching of venues may have caused.”
