Barbican cop lion’s share at Women’s awards

BARBICAN FC topped the JFF/Sherwin Williams-sponsored 2009/2010 Women’s Football competitions and dominated the award and prize-giving ceremony at the JFF Headquarters in New Kingston on Tuesday.

The Charles Edwards-coached Barbican not only walked away with the major awards for the Women’s league and KO divisions, but also copped a number of individual prizes in both competitions.

The highlight of the ceremony, however, was the award by Sherwin Williams of two scholarships valued at $35,000 each to Ashley Saddler and Ornella Gray for high academic performances.

Both players are members of the Constant Spring team which failed to finish in the top four in either competition.

Saddler, a student at Ardenne High, attained eight subjects at the CXC level with four distinctions and four credits. She is at present awaiting acceptance to the Florida State University in the USA.

Gray, an upper-sixth former and deputy head girl at St Jago High, also achieved eight CXCs and CAPE subjects.

Barbican, who won the Women’s Premier League by beating newcomers Los Perfectos of Manchester, pocketed $300,000 and a trophy, and $70,000 for winning the Colourscape KO competition by also topping Los Perfectos.

For their second-placed finish in both competitions, Los Perfectos collected $175,000 and $50,000, respectively.

Portmore Strikers FC, who finished third in the Premier League, received $105,000, while Waterhouse Women’s FC took home $80,000 for fourth.

In the Colourscape KO, Trelawny Women took the third-prize money of $30,000, while Waterhouse pocketed $25,000 for fourth.

Nadola Chase of Barbican and Tasheka Small of Waterhouse pocketed $2,500 each and a trophy for being the top goalscorers in the Colourscape tournament, while Chase was the MVP and walked away with $10,000 and a trophy.

Meanwhile, in the Premier League, Portmore Strikers won the midseason final and received $80,000 and a trophy, while runners-up Los Perfectos took home $60,000 and medals.

Barbican’s Khalie Beckford was the top goalkeeper and earned a trophy and $15,000, while coach of the winning team, Edwards, pocketed $20,000 and a trophy, along with an additional $25,000 and a trophy for being voted Coach of The Year.

Iesha Mowatt, representing Portmore Strickers FC, was the top goalscorer in the Premier League with six goals of the 26 scored by her team and went away smiling with $15,000 and atrophy, while winning captain Alicia James pocketed $10,000 and a trophy.

Referees Patrecia Ryan, Tamara Robinson, Antonette Williams and Tashna Earl were all recipients of medals for officiating in the Premier League, along with referees Cardella Samuels, Stacy-Ann Greyson, Odette Hamilton and Patrecia Ryan, who officiated in the Colourscape KO final.
