Non Elite League outfits Slingerz FC and Pouderoyen will contest the final of the West Demerara Football Association (WDFA) ‘Commander Cup’ following convincing semi-final wins over Elite League sides Den Amstel, and the Guyana Police Force (GPF) respectively on Friday.

Hosted at the National Track and Field Centre, Leonora, Slingerz FC, who was once a member of the Elite League, thrashed Den Amstel 6-1. Lanferman opened the scoring in the 30th minute, racing onto a lobbed pass from the defender that sailed over the back-line, before slotting past the goalkeeper during a one-on-one situation.

Leo Lovell then made it 2-0 in the 35th minute, slamming his effort past the custodian, after latching onto a through pass from Jamal Perreira. Slingerz entered the halftime interval with a commanding 3-0 advantage after Dexroy Adams found the back of the net in the 45th minute.
