STCG tackle Ardenne as 11 teams hunt second win in Manning Cup
Eleven schools will be chasing their second
victory in two matches when the ISSA/Digicel Manning Cup schoolboy football
competition continues this Saturday at 3:30 pm, with 15 matches from five
groups.
Two former champions, St George’s College
and Ardenne will meet in an interesting matchup at Ardenne, with both seeking
to wrest the leadership of the Group F from the other as they are on three
points each in the standing.
St George’s form in recent years will make
them favourites to win as, while Ardenne have opened their campaign with a win
this year, they have struggled since their glory days of 1991 when they won
their first and only title.
St George’s and Ardenne are part of the
quality line-up of 11 teams hunting their second win on Saturday.
The other competing teams are namely Holy Trinity, St Jago, Charlie Smith, Denham Town, Jonathan Grant, St Catherine, St Andrew Technical, Papine, and defending champions Kingston College.
