Kaieteur Sports – The Guyana Football Federation (GFF) is set to commence the highly anticipated Elite League Qualification Playoffs on Saturday, January 11, 2025.

This knockout-style tournament will feature seven regional champions vying for a chance to compete in Season 7 of the GFF Elite League and will ultimately determine promotions.

Participating teams are all league winners of their Regional Association’s 2024 Senior Men’s League.

The teams include:

  • Potaro Strikers FC (Bartica FA)
  • Paradise Invaders FC (Berbice FA)
  • Agricola Red Triangle FC (East Bank FA)
  • Mahaica Determinators FC (East Demerara FA)
  • Lake Mainstay FC (Essequibo Coast Pomeroon FA)
  • Pele FC (Georgetown FA)
  • Uitvlugt Warriors FC (West Demerara FA)

All matches will be played at community fields due to vital maintenance works scheduled

for the National Training Centre (NTC).

The full fixture list is as follows:

Saturday, January 11, 2025

  • Mahaica Determinators FC vs. Paradise Invaders FC at Rosignol Ground, 4:00

Sunday, January 12, 2025

Saturday, January 18, 2025

  • Semifinal 2 (Venue and time to be determined)

Wednesday, January 22, 2025

  • Elite League Qualification Playoffs Final (Venue and time to be determined)

Matches will be played in full compliance with FIFA’s Laws of the Game, with referees

and officials appointed by the GFF Referee Council.

An additional spot will be up for grabs through a single game play-off match which will

be played by the loser of the Final match against the Season Six ninth place finishers, Ann’s Grove United. This match will therefore determine if Ann’s Grove United will be

relegated from the League like the Season 7 10th place finisher and a new club will take

its place, or if it will remain in the Season 7 roster.

As part of its ongoing commitment to football development, the GFF aims to provide a

pathway for regional champions to ascend to the nation’s premier football competition.
