• Petrojam are BH champions again

Defending champions Petrojam won Division One of the KSAFA/Western Sports Business House football competition at Emmet Park - for the third consecutive year - last Saturday when they defeated 2009 champions Scotiabank 4-2 on penalty kicks in the final.

In the Division Two final, NCB defeated GraceKennedy 3-1 with goals from Dellon Dixon (2) and George Clarke.

Both teams went goalless in regulation and extra time in the Division One final before it came down to the penalty shootout. Petrojam, with this victory, completed the double.

PFM, Waltham Park on collision course

Fans are already predicting a Power of Faith, Waltham Park New Testament final for the Power of Faith Ministry church netball league.

However, the two top teams will have to wait for that matchup as both have semi-final games they have to win for that to happen.

The semi-final action today at the PFM Sports Complex at Lot 10C, Portmore Town Centre, pits Power of Faith against Cedar Grove Baptist at 1 p.m., while at 2:30 p.m. Waltham Park New Testament battle Lighthouse Assembly.

Lighthouse claimed the fourth and final semi-final spot last Saturday, as they edged Holiness Apostolic 21-19 in a keenly contested match. But Lighthouse are up against a formidable opponent in Waltham Park in their semi-final encounter and any slip-up could see them suffer defeat.

• Marine Park win again

Marine Park's netball team chalked up their sixth win in as many matches, after they defeated Hellshire 29-26 in a St Catherine Netball Association League match at Ascot High School last Sunday.

Hellshire had a dreadful start to the game and trailed 1-7 after the first quarter and struggled to keep pace with the more consistent Marine Park. Hellshire tried desperately to cut the gap, but fell short at the end.

The win saw Marine Park progress to 18 points from six matches and to top their group. In other games, Friendship won their seventh game in a row after they dismissed Homestead 28-19; Job Lane 'A' stopped Genesis 22-8, while Queens Park edged Westchester 'B' 24-21. The competition continues tomorrow with a full slate of games.

• Parkway, Mashway face off

Defending champions Parkway, currently third in Zone B on three points, will not be in a pleasant mood as they face off against newcomers and bottom club Mashway (one point) in the feature match of a double-header, in the Fenley Douglas-sponsored Waterford Corner League football match at the Waterford playing field tomorrow, starting at 4 p.m.

Parkway suffered an upset 1-0 defeat by Wigton last Sunday, via a goal by Adrian Evans, and will come with a no-nonsense attitude against their opponents, as a loss would surely place them out of the semi-finals.

In another game, Zone A strugglers Little America and Harmons will be gunning for their first points of the season when they play the opening game at the venue at 2 p.m.

• Westchester's loss leaves league wide open

The Colin Fagan-sponsored South East St Catherine Constituency Domino League is wide open after former unbeaten team, Westchester Rudiz, tasted defeat for the first time in five matches, when they went down 250-221 to defending champs Passagefort United at Westchester last Sunday.

Despite the loss, Westchester clung on to the lead jointly with Waterford United on 16 points each from five matches. The leaders are trailed by Passagefort (13) and Ken's Wildflower (12).

In other games last Sunday, Waterford defeated Portmore Gardens All Stars 250-218, Rising Sun clipped Portsmouth United 250-243, and Ken's Wildflower rushed past Garveymeade 250-216. The competition takes a one-week break and resumes on Sunday, September 23.

• Manchester win High School's netball rally

Host Manchester High landed both the senior and junior titles at the ISSA All-Schools' rural one-day netball rally in Mandeville on Thursday.

• Clarendon Business House semis

The semi-finals of the Tait's Pharmacy-sponsored Clarendon Business House league will be played tomorrow morning at Mineral Heights Sports Complex. Kick-off time is 7 a.m.

Zone A winners Farmers are pitted against Zone B runners-up Chef's Restaurant, while Young's Sports, the Zone B winners, take on Zone A's second-place qualifier Epic Hardware.

In last week's final set of preliminary matches Chef's brushed aside Parkview 3-0 to secure the final semi-final spot. Their victory also means that a new champion will be crowned this season as Juici Patties were displaced as the second-place qualifier from Zone B.

All four semi-finalists are unbeaten so far.
