Winning team to pocket $1M at second Rock Auto Trans futsal tournament

Six teams will compete in the second edition of the Rock Auto Trans Futsal Tournament, which kicks off February 24 at the National Gymnasium.

The organiser, Wayne ‘Harry’ Griffith, has announced that the tournament, which the Guyana Football Federation sanctions, has an increased top prize of G$1 million.

Griffith, who launched the tournament on Wednesday at FireSide Grill, called on teams to play hard and maintain discipline.

He emphasised the need to be appropriately attired, especially when wearing shin pads and long socks.

According to Griffith, the other cash prizes up are $500,000 (second), $300,000 (third) and $200,000 (fourth).

Thanks to the title sponsor, numerous fans and the most valuable player are expected to win motorcycles.
