Kerdel Alfred and Daniel Hagley were recognised for their outstanding play this season when they were named the “Most Valuable Players” of the Senior and Under-18 Divisions, respectively, in the bpTT Mayaro Football League.
The duo helped Maguaya United capture the lion’s share of the major titles, including the senior and Under-18 league championships at the league’s prize distribution function at the Mayaro Resource Centre, on Sunday.
Managed and coached by Joseph Weekes, the dominant Maguaya team also took home the knockout titles in both the U-18 and U-16 competitions as well as the runner-up accolade in the U-16 league championship.
Maguaya was awarded a cash prize of $5,000 and the Razack Jan Memorial Trophy as senior league champions. Jan, founder and main organiser of the Mayaro Football League, died last year.
Cash prizes totalling some $25,000 were distributed to teams and individuals in the league competitions which were played off in three divisions. The league is organised by Illusions Sports Club and fully sponsored by energy company bpTT, whose home community is Mayaro.
