BVIFA concludes successful high school football season
The afternoon began with an exhibition game between the Open Boys Champions, Elmore Stoutt High School (ESHS) and U15 Champions, Bregado Flax Educational Centre, which was won 3-1 by ESHS, thanks to a brace of goals from Phillip Jules and one from Timothy Lewis. Makimbo Demming scored for BFEC.
Following the game, BVIFA President Mr Andy Bickerton began the trophy presentation with some words of encouragement.
“It is very obvious that we have problems with facilities and it is very difficult to play a good standard of football, but it is very pleasing to see in today’s game so many of you that have progressed through the system from the BDO Primary School Football to now High School and have definitely improved. The new stadium is coming, just down the road from here (Greenland) and by the time we start the new season in September you will be playing on a high quality surface,” he said.
Cedar International School champions of Girls Division:
Cedar International School were champions of the Girls Division with 12 points ahead of BFEC, who had nine and ESHS 6.
The MVP was Tinia Van Zoost of Cedar International School.
The Golden Boot award went to Lilly Pierce and the Golden Glove recipient was Chinara Perry of Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) School.
Marlina d’Anguiar, also of SDA School, was named Most Improved Player.
The Seventh-day Adventist girls had put up some stellar performances and certainly brought with them the most support, both on the bench and in the stands, despite suffering some heavy defeats, including an 8-0 loss to ESHS for whom both Morgan Creque and Sheniece St Jean scored hat tricks.
What would have turned out to be the most crucial game of the season then turned into a disappointing affair as ESHS lost by forfeit to Cedar after not having enough players to complete the game.
Cedar went on to stamp their authority on the League with a 4-2 win over BFEC, which included goals for Olivia Messum, Alisha Looney and Pierce.
Pierce added a five goal salvo against Claudia Creque and wrapped up the league championship with another hat trick in the 8-1 win over SDA, in a game that also included a hat trick for Ella Brownsdon.
National U17 Player, Kayla Skelton wrote her name into the record books with a hat trick of her own in a 9-0 win over SDA.
Boys U15 Division:
BFEC went unbeaten throughout the season to lift the title.
The MVP award went to Michael Woodley, the Golden Boot Award to Luka Chalwell and the Golden Glove, who else but Daniel Gilford.
Khemron Tillack made it known early that BFEC meant business with a hat trick in the 4-0 victory over St George's, but Luca Reich of Cedar White went one better and scored four in a 7-1 demolition of ESHS. However, even those goal scoring feats were outshone by Devante Samuel, who scored five for BFEC in the 9-0 thrashing of Cedar Green.
Cedar White went on to beat SDA 4-1 with Luka Chalwell getting in on the multi goal scoring fun, notching all four and then registering a hat trick in his sides 7-0 win over their school mates.
Not to be out done, Kyreek Gardiner smashed home four goals as BFEC rattled up a 10-2 victory against SDA and Miquel Marshall grabbed his own moment in the sunshine with a hat trick for ESHS in a 6-1 win over Cedar Green.
Boy’s Open Division:
ESHS recorded a perfect season to claim the Championship Trophy.
