On the men’s side, Teachers were victorious over Academy FC on the weekend, thereby hoisting the PPL cup competition finals trophy.

Taiwayne Lewin, the coach for both sides, commended both teams for their strong and historic showing in both the men’s and women’s leagues.

“It was a long football season which saw some coaching changes, roster changes, and injuries to both the men’s and women’s teams. There were also interruptions in play due to national competition obligations, but I am proud of our players who battled all season long and put together outstanding results when we needed to,” Lewin said.

Lewin also thanked the sponsors who enabled the club success in the just-concluded season.

“A special thanks to all our sponsors, Crust Bakery, Ideal Cuts, The Tuscany, RBC and Grace Bay Pharmacy, for providing us with the resources to effectively compete in the sport we love,” Lewin added.
