The Essequibo Zone of the ExxonMobil-powered Future Warriors Tapeball Tournament for Primary Schools is under way at the Anna Regina National Stadium in Anna Regina. After earlier matches in Demerara and Berbice, the competition moves into a 16-team knockout format at the venue. Defending champions C.V. Nunes Primary are highlighted as they aim to defend their Essequibo Zone title. On the opening day of the Essequibo Zone, multiple primary school teams play grassroots tapeball matches, and four teams qualify for the semi-finals. C.V. Nunes Primary advances, alongside Charity, Mainstay Lake, and Lima Sands. The tournament’s early phase focuses on determining the semifinal line-up from the knockout bracket. The reports consistently frame the event as high-energy, community-level cricket involving primary school teams, with ExxonMobil Guyana sponsoring the tournament. The next stage after the initial qualification is the semi-finals, following the completion of the opening round(s) on the zone’s match schedule.
