“The Tournament has received a lot of support from several Clubs throughout Trinidad and Tobago and the players are always excited to show off their ‘tricks n plays’. The 3v3 really strips the game down to the fundamentals of football and I am very appreciative of the positive feedback we’ve gotten thus far,” says founder and Trinidad and Tobago Women’s National Captain, Maylee Attin-Johnson

The main sponsors of this event are Atlantic, B-Mobile, Massy Foundation, FT Car Services, Ministry of Sport and Youth Affairs and support from various product sponsors.
