Primary School

Girls

The balance of power has recently shifted from the West to the East with the East team favoured to win after the six-a-side and cup finalists both came out of the East this year.

Kalilah Daley has been unstoppable during the last two years and she will be difficult to stop in the All-Star match.

During the Knockout Cup finals weekend, Daley was on target twelve times, scoring six goals in both the semi-finals and final.

The West also feature a talented squad led by Janiyah Sealey from Paget Primary, BHS’s Olivia Younie and the Saltus pair of Ash Storrie Hughes and Luciana Fischer.

Primary Schools

Boys

This game could potentially be a high-scoring affair with both teams possessing a few offensive sharp shooters.

The East will feature Samir Askia from St George’s Preparatory who scored six goals in the Division Two final in December.

Dellwood Middle School finished the league undefeated this season and have six of their players named as All-Stars. East player Katherine Bean-Rosario was recently was named finals MVP at the Alicia Zuill women’s tournament.

Middle School

Boys

Another match that may also prove to be a balanced and entertaining fixture.

The league was extremely close this year with no team stamping their authority through six-a-side, league and tournament play.

The West will look to prolific scorer Chance Eve from Sandys, Sachiel Ming from Saltus, and Warwick Academy’s speedster Malachi Henry to provide the offence.

The majority of the East offensive duties will fall to Kai Sampson from Somersfield Academy along with Dellwood’s Zano Tucker.

Senior School

Girls

The East should be favoured to win as they will feature a large number of undefeated Saltus players.

The attack will be led by Saltus pair of Noah Autmezguine and Za’Kayza Parsons along with Asrael Basden from CedarBridge Academy.

Saltus’ hard working Emily Cabral will provide the midfield muscle along with CedarBridge’s Ka’ri Richardson.

The West will also find Saltus’ Koa Goodchild’s marshalled defence hard to penetrate.

The West boasts a number of players from the cup and league runner’s up Berkeley Institute. Berkeley twins Jahni and Jahde will play pivotal role in getting the West forward.

East squad: Asrael Basden, Stefanie Francis, Zhi Williams, Nhoaa Powell, Se’lah Ray, Kenshae Richarson, Ka’Ri Richards (CedarBridge), Noah Autmezguine, Za’Kayza Parsons, Jade Johnston, Jailyn Boddington, Lindsey Pacheco, Koa Goodchild, Emily Cabral (Saltus), Kayla Caldwell, Harriet Thesen (MSA).

Senior School

Boys

This match will look a lot like the senior Knockout Cup final in December where CedarBridge Academy edged on perennial winners Berkeley Institute in a penalty shoot-out.

Each All-Star team will be heavily made up of players for either school.

Berkeley and the West team will be seeking some revenge after their close loss in December.
