They scored how many?
Beatnix Sports Club were the first big winners of the 2023 Republic Cup National Youth Football League, as they thumped 12 unanswered goals past the beleaguered Elton John Youth Academy in East Zone Under-17 action at the Eddie Hart Savannah in Tacarigua on Saturday 11 March.

They did not have to wait long for company, though, as the Cox Coaching School matched their tally with a similar 12-0 flogging of San Fernando Academy in South Zone Under-15 action on Sunday morning.
