The Police Falcons thumped the Guyana Defence Force unit, 31-7 when the curtains came down on the GRFU 12s tournament on Saturday at the National Park.Led by two tries by Owen Adonis and a try and conversion by Theo Henry, the Police outfit easily arrested the militia men.

Rickford Cummings and Lionel Holder also had their names on the scoresheet for the Falcons.

Akeano James with a try and conversion was the lone scorer for GDF.

However, fans and players were unable to receive the announcement of the winner of the tournament.

If GDF had managed at least a draw, Panthers would’ve been crowned the 2023 GRFU 12s Champions but Police won and finished level on points with w.

 In addition, poor record keeping has not allowed the officials to award a winner through points scored.

According to the Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the GRFU, Godfrey Broomes, “The tournament officials are currently deliberating what will be the move forward but it is very likely that there will be a playoff match between Police and Panthers to determine the champions.”
