CATHERINE HALL, St James — A third game has been added to Saturday’s opening day of the ISSA/Lime schoolboy football competition to be held at the Montego Bay Sports Complex at Catherine Hall in Montego Bay.

Former daCosta Cup champions Cornwall College will open their season against Maldon High in Zone A in a third game set to start at 7:00 pm, the Inter-Secondary Schools Sports Association (ISSA) announced this week.

The additional game was originally set for next Wednesday, September 11, but has been brought forward.

The game between defending Manning Cup champions St George’s College and Camperdown High will start at 3:00 pm following the 2:00 pm opening ceremony and parade of teams.

DaCosta Cup champions Glenmuir High and Denbigh High will then meet at 5:00 pm, as the rural area competition gets underway.

Meanwhile, George Forbes, ISSA’s Competition Coordinator, confirmed yesterday that three schools have withdrawn from the daCosta Cup competition, just days before the kick-off.

Hopewell High in Zone B, Albert Town in Zone G, and Porus High in Zone M have all indicated they will not take part this year, leaving 80 schools to take part in the competition.
