PM Cup title race intensifies after Round Two

The 2025 Prime Minister’s Cup is heating up as teams conclude Round Two of the group stage, with fierce competition to unseat the reigning champions, the University of the West Indies (UWI) Blackbirds. Across all groups, clubs are demonstrating exceptional skill, delivering commanding performances, and engaging in physically demanding matches as the tournament edges closer to the knockout phase. With only one round of matches left for most groups before the Round of 16 begins in late October, the race for qualification is reaching a crescendo. In Group A, newcomers St Andrew Lions have emerged as a formidable force, securing two consecutive victories, including a thrilling 2-1 win over Ellerton, showcasing their potential under Captain Darico King. Group B sees last year’s runners-up, Brittons Hill, in dominant form, with a 4-0 thrashing of Greens United highlighting their attacking prowess, led by Corey Hoyte, Ray Snagg, and T’Shane Lorde. Group C’s Pride of Gall Hill aims to sustain their momentum in their upcoming clash with Benfica, while Group D remains highly competitive with Paradise Club and Kickstart Rush tied on points. Group E’s postponed matches, now rescheduled for October 10, feature critical encounters, including defending champions UWI Blackbirds facing Lodge Road. Group F’s top-of-the-table clash between Weymouth Wales and Whitehall FC promises to be a highlight. The Prime Minister’s Cup, themed ‘Empowering Communities One Goal at a Time,’ continues to draw large crowds, with teams competing for the prestigious $100,000 prize.
