SADDLERS CONTINUE TO DOMINATE SKNFA PREMIER U-13 YOUTH CUP

Action continued on the weekend in the SKNFA Youth Leagues with matches played in Cayon
and St. Peters. On Saturday in the SKNFA Premier U13 Youth Cup Saddlers defeated NAGICO
Cayon Rockets 3-1 in Cayon. Saddlers broke the deadlock early in the second half and doubled
that lead moments later. But Cayon earned a penalty and was able to get back into the game. No
sooner had they scored that penalty, Saddlers scored a stunning strike from yards out to seal the
win. Goalkeeper for Saddlers Tajonne Charles said although his team won, they can play better.
“They played good but they need to work on possession, some controlling and they need to take
(more) shots,” he said, adding that if they follow this recommendation, Saddlers would remain
undefeated in the U13 League.
