Prospect Primary powers past Red Bay Primary

As the summer heat continues into October, action on the football fields across Grand Cayman during the third week of play in the CUC Primary Football League (PFL) and Girls’ Primary Football League (GPFL) showed no signs of letting up despite the warm conditions.

In Group B in the CUC PFL, Prospect Primary overcame neighbours Red Bay Primary in both age- groups but the one-sided scores were not a true reflection of the effort and tenacity exerted by both schools. In the Under 9 contest, Prospect Primary’s two goals in the first half were enough to secure a 2-0 win and the three points and in the Under 11 game, Prospect Primary’s 3-0 victory made it a successful Saturday outing for the boys in purple and yellow.
