The open day tourney organised by the Brufut based Gilkock Football Academy will feature eight teams from across the village of Brufut and will take the form of a knock out said Sang Mendy, Public Relations Officer.

"We've invited about sixteen teams to partake in this tournament in which we will have the opportunity to scout some female players to join the academy and as well prepare a team to partake in the nations female league in the near future for Brufut," he explained.

"We had two meetings and in all these two meetings only eight turned out, so we decided to hold on to the eight that turned out because to us its only these teams that are interested".
