Maple will know tomorrow if it will contest the Big Four in the Northern Football Association. The Maplenites will have to beat Police outright in their final Group “A” match on Paragon ground, Queen’s Park Savannah, to join winner FC-1 as the two qualifiers from the group. Kick off is 4 pm. A win, and a defeat for FC-1 against RSSR, will ensure Maple first place in the standings. However, if Maple fails in its bid, Dathea will fill the runner-up spot, having collected three easy points in a default win over the University of Southern Caribbean on Sunday.

Debutant West Side Stars emerged a convincing winner of Group “B” with 38 points, six more than second placed Clint Marcelle Football Academy. It played unbeaten in its 16 matches. Also on tomorrow will be the clash between FC-1 and RSSR on New ground and Morvant Elements against Petit Valley United on St Francois ground. The curtain will come down on Saturday with Petit Valley opposing Paragon on New ground. Action in the Big Four will begin on Saturday as well.
