BIG WINS AS SKNFA DIVISION 1 ROUND TWO COMMENCES

Round two of the 2024 SKNFA Division 1 season got under way last week with wins for Fast Cash Saddlers United, Jones Group Sandy Point FC, Security Forces FC and Conaree Fireball International. On Thursday at the NBGC Technical Center in St. Peters, Security Forces drubbed Rivers of Living Water FC 7-0. Evanslie Fahie scored two goals in the 13^th and 37^th minutes, Everette Ritchen in the 34^th minutes, David Joseph in the 57^thmin, Shane Clarke in the 60^th min, Ronaldo Blake in the 73^rdminute and Shamar Douglas in the 86^th min.

In Thursday’s second match Lodge Patriots drew 1-1 with TGE Dieppe Bay Eagles. Sair Morton scored for Lodge in the 54^thminute, while Jason Phipps equalized for Dieppe Bay in the 84^thminute.  After the match, Coach of Lodge Leon Natta-Nelson praised his players for their execution on the pitch. “I thought tonight, the first game of the second round, a better playing from the team…the movement on the ball and off the ball was wonderful in the first half,” Natta-Nelson said. He blamed the goal they conceded on lack of focus. “That has been our demise for the whole season,” he said, while expressing satisfaction with a point. He said the aim now is to beat teams they lost to in round one of the league. “We had some developmental players who are just in the first and second year in the league. We have seen some improvement and we hope that we can regroup after this second round, we can go into next season but we will focus on one game at a time,” he said.
