Jambanjelly United will rub shoulders with Black & White Academy of Berending village in the all-Kombo South derby in the 2014 West Coast Region third division qualifiers final set for tomorrow, Friday 31 January 2014, at the Brikama Box Bar Mini Stadium.

Jambanjelly United sailed to the final following their penalty shootout win over Jespa Academy, after a goalless draw in the regulation time in the first semi-final game played at the Brikama Box Bar Mini Stadium on Sunday.

Jam city boys will be coming all out for a win to sail to the Gambia Football Federation (GFF) third division triangular qualifiers after their demotion to the third tier in the 2009-2010 season following their campaign in the second tier.

Black & White, on the other hand, advanced to the final following their post-match penalty shootout victory over Kombo Kerewan United in the second semi-final game, after a goalless draw in the normal time played at the Brikama Box Bar Mini Stadium on Monday.

Berending Academy boys will also be expecting a victory to sail to the GFF third division triangular qualifiers after losing to Bombada United 2-1 in the 2013 West Coast Region third division qualifiers final game played at the Brikama Box Bar Mini Stadium.

The winner will represent West Coast Region in the 2014 GFF third division triangular qualifiers later this year where they will meet teams from Banjul, Kanifing Municipality and the two relegated teams from the second division - Lamin United and Latrikunda United.

The top two teams with the highest number of points in the triangular qualifiers will gain automatic promotion to the second division.
