Reggae Youths to meet Boys Club in JFF Western Confed

MONTEGO BAY, St James — Newly crowned Jamaica Football Federation Western Confederation Charley’s JB Rum Super League mid-season champions Reggae Youths will meet Montego Bay Boys Club at the UDC field on Saturday as the third round cross-zone gets underway with two St James derbies.

Reggae Youths, who came from two goals down to beat Sandals South Coast in the mid-season final 5-2 in extra time at Jarrett Park on Sunday, will be seeking to avenge a loss in the St James Football Association’s Captain’s Bakery and Grill Knockout last week.

At Jarrett Park, defending champions Granville United and Faulkland SC, both seeking to make a run at the top four, will meet in another game.

The remainder of the round of matches will be played on Sunday and will see Sandals South Coast seeking to rebound from their first loss of the season when they host Three Miles River. Clark’s Town will host Holland United at Cedric Titus High; Hopewell meet Wadadah FC at Orchard; and Beaches Negril and Petersfield will play at Long Bay Beach Park.

In the third round teams from either zone will play each once, and the top four teams on points from all three rounds will advance to the semi-finals.

Sandals South Coast, the beaten finalists last year, lead the table with 28 points, nine more than Reggae Youths.Meanwhile, Montego Bay Boys Club and Faulkland SC and Clark’s Town are tied on 16 points each.

On Saturday Reggae Youths will seek to maintain their momentum from Sunday’s game when they take on a Boys Club team that are winless in their last three Super League games.

Denardo Kerr put his hands up for a starting position with two goals in extra time on Sunday and could partner O’Carey Spence, the competition’s top scorer with nine goals, and Santino Grinnion.

Boys Club could move into second place if they can repeat their win from last week, but could face a tougher Reggae Youths team than the one they played in the parish knockout game last week.

Boys Club have the best defensive record of any team in the competition, conceding just five goals in 10 games, but has scored just nine goals.

At Jarrett Park, Faulkland FC will hope to continue their resurgence at the expense of the defending champions as they seek to press for a place in the top four.

Faulkland SC, who are facing their toughest test in four years of existence, are unbeaten in their last three games, creeping to fourth place, and within striking distance of second place.
