SportsMayor’s Cup finals

DANGRIGA, Wed. July 26, 2017–Here are the results from the Dangriga Mayor’s Cup 2017 championship finals last Sunday at the Carl Ramos Stadium, where thousands of football fans from all over the country of Belize and elsewhere turned out in numbers… sold out bleachers, hundreds of standees, sold out Carl Ramos Stadium in drinks and food!

Coming to the games, in the third-place match-up, DYFA won over Department of Youth Services, 4 goals to 1.

In game two, which was the big championship showdown, it was a wonderful, beautiful game between both teams; but at the end of regular time, the Belize Coast Guards proved to everyone they are the better team throughout the Mayor’s Cup Tournament by winning the Mayor’s Cup championship final over Harrison “Cafu” Roches’ team, the Pomona Warriors, by a score of 3 goals to 1. Orwin “Sonny” Wade, Brian Martinez and Steven “Seed” Martinez all got 1 apiece for the Belize Coast Guards. Pomona Warriors’ only goal came from the Mayor’s Cup “Most Goals” scorer, Alexander “Pleck” Peters.
