DEFENDING champions National Water Commission (NWC) will face Sandals Grande Riviera in the semi-final of the Sandals Business House Football League today at Drax Hall at 3:30 pm.

The second semi-final will be played tomorrow between high-flying title favourites Gran Bahai Principe and Couple Sans Souci, also at Drax Hall at 3:30.

The quartet earned their spots in contrasting fashion. Grand Bahai defeated Sandals Grande, 4-0, and Police, 7-2, to top Zone One, while Sandals Grande defeated Police, 3-0, to book second place.

Gran Bahai look the class of the 15-team field this season and by virtue of their quarter final performance, are tipped to go all the way.

NWC saved their best for last and defeated Couples Sans Souci, 2-1, to top Zone Two. Sans Souci defeated Noranda Bauxite to place second.

In today’s encounter NWC will be heavy favourites to stop the Sandals Grande aggregation. However, it promises to be interesting as Sandals have the prolific Bevin Grant who has so far scored five goals.

NWC’s coach David Pryce says his team will not be taking Sandals Grande lightly and will not be relinquishing their crown without a fight.
