Cayman: Primary School football returns

Semi-final action from the 2023 CUC PFL between Prospect Primary (purple) and CIS.

Saturday morning excitement returns to primary school fields across Grand Cayman as the 2024 CUC
Primary Football League (PFL) and the CUC Girls’ Primary Football League (GPFL) regular seasons
kick-off this Saturday, September 21. The 2024 season marks CUC’s 18th year as exclusive sponsors of
these flourishing youth football leagues.

In the CUC PFL Under 9 division, defending 2024 league champions Prospect Primary look to retain
their title they bravely rested from four-time champions Cayman Prep 9A following an exhilarating
final. Under 9 Consolation Cup champions Cayman Prep 9B will be out to defend their title after
overcoming newcomers Island Primary 3-0 in the 2023 final.

In what has become a tradition of winning, the CUC PFL Under 11 division defending 2023 league
champions Cayman Prep 11A look to continue their dominance in this age group as they go for a
record-setting eighth consecutive league title. Their dominance over the years was exhibited in the
2023 final as they put a talented St. Ignatius Catholic outfit to the ‘sword’ with an impressive 6-2 win.

Under 11 Consolation Cup champions Sir John A. Cumber Primary are looking to go one better this
year as they vie for the coveted Under 11 league championship, a title that has eluded them for a
number of years.

Schools competing in the 2024 CUC PFL this year include Sir John A. Cumber Primary, Marie Martin
Primary, Red Bay Primary, Prospect Primary, Joanna Clarke Primary, Theoline L. McCoy Primary,
NorthEast Schools (a combination of Edna Moyle Primary and East End Primary), Cayman
International School, Cayman Prep, St. Ignatius Catholic School, Island Primary, Footsteps School,
Cayman Academy and newcomers WCA (a combination of Wesleyan Academy and Truth For Youth).

In the CUC GPFL Under 11 division, St. Ignatius Catholic surprised an ‘up to then’ unbeaten Cayman
Prep team 1-0 in the final league game to capture the girls Under 11 title.
Schools competing in the 2024 CUC GPFL include Cayman Prep, Cayman International School, Marie
Martin Primary, Joanna Clarke Primary, Sir John A. Cumber Primary, St. Ignatius Catholic, Red Bay
Primary, Island Primary and newcomers NorthEast Schools.

This year, the CUC GPFL Under 11 league will follow a similar structure to the boys where a
Champions Cup and Consolation Cup will be introduced following regular season play.

Supporters of the beautiful game are encouraged to come out to the various sports facilities and
school fields and show their support for these Under 9 and Under 11 athletes as they compete for
school pride.

The CYFL thank Progressive Distributors and Gatorade for their ongoing support of the CUC PFL and
GPFL.
