Cayman Islands: CIS Blue and Cayman Prep top standings in Dart High School Football League
After three weeks of play in the inaugural Dart Under 14 Girls’ and Dart Under 13 Boys’ high school football leagues, the young ladies from Cayman International School (CIS) Blue and the young men from Cayman Prep sit atop the standings in their respective leagues.
In the girl’s league, the top 3 schools remain undefeated with CIS Blue leading the league with 9 points from 3 games, Cayman Prep United are second with 7 points from 3 games and Triple C is third with 4 points from 2 games.
In the boy’s league, the top 3 schools are also undefeated with Cayman Prep leading with 7 points from 3 games, St. Ignatius are second with 6 points from 2 games and Triple C sits in third place with 5 points from 3 games.
Both leagues kicked-off during the first week in October and apart from the sporadic deluges encountered during the first two weeks of play, which resulted in a few unavoidable postponements, the teams have found their ‘groove’ and have played some very entertaining football.
High schools participating in the leagues include Clifton Hunter High School (CHHS), John Gray High School (JGHS), St. Ignatius Catholic School, Triple C, Cayman Prep & High School, CIS and Cayman Academy. Venues include fields at CHHS, St. Ignatius Catholic School, Cayman International School (Dart Field), Cayman Prep High School, the Annex Field and the CIFA Centre of Excellence in Prospect.
Schools are currently on mid-term break but play will resume on Wednesday, November 1 for the girls and Thursday, November 2 for the boys. Games scheduled on Wednesday include JGHS vs. Triple C (Annex Field); CHHS vs. CIS Blue (Dart Field); St. Ignatius vs. Cayman Prep United (St. Ignatius); and CIS White vs. Cayman Prep City (Cayman Prep High School). For the boys, it’s JGHS Sevens vs. St. Ignatius (St. Ignatius); JGHS Eights vs. CIS
Sponsored exclusively by Dart, the leagues have been specifically designed to assist with the development of youth football in Grand Cayman.
