26.9.05 - The past few days have seen a number of games in the Caribbean as teams from across the region set their sights on reaching the next stage of Caribbean qualifying for the 2006 CONCACAF Champion’s Cup.
Games in four of the five home-and-away series have now taken place, three of these having been completed.
Series A
The two games between SV Britannia of Aruba and SV Robinhood of Surinam are scheduled to take place in neutral Trinidad and Tobago on 27 and 29 September. The winner of this series will play North East Stars of Trinidad and Tobago in the next stage of qualifying.
Series B
In the opening game of this tie, Sagicor South East from Dominica lost to visiting Bassa FC from Antigua by 6:0 score line. Two first half goals by Randolph Burton (6’ and 29’) and strikes from Anjis Anthony (41’) and Jamie Thomas (45’+1) gave the visitors a 4:0 lead. Thomas added his second after the break with a strike after 63 minutes before Bevis Romeo scored his team’s sixth, just before he final whistle (89’).
Home victory in the second-leg of this encounter by a 2:1 margin gave Bassa FC an 8:1 aggregate victory and a place in the next stage of Caribbean qualifying. First half goals from Jeffers (19’) and Williams (42’) put the final result well beyond doubt with Sagicor South East’s only goal of the series scored by Pharo Cliffy on 52 minutes. Bassa FC therefore proceed to the next round of Caribbean qualifying where they will play SV Centro Social Deportivo Barber of the Netherlands Antilles.
Series C
Grand Bazaar Dublanc FC, also from Dominica, opened their two-legged series against Hoppers FC of Antigua at home on 22 September. The Antiguans came away with a 2:1 advantage thanks to an early goal from Tamorley Thomas (5’) and a strike by Kemu Peters (76’). Vincent Cosimir reduced the deficit to just one goal when he scored for Dublanc in the 86th minute, giving the Dominican team some hope on their visit to Antigua for the second leg.
Two early goals for Hoppers in the second leg of the encounter, by Terry Roberts (15’) and Kelly Frederick (19’) effectively put the series beyond Dublanc and second half goals by Thomas (59’) and another for Frederick (72’) led the home team to a 4:0 victory and a 6:1 aggregate score line in the series. Hoppers FC therefore proceed to the next round of Caribbean qualifying to play Portmore United FC of Jamaica.
Series D
Following the goal-less draw in the first leg of this encounter, home victory for SV Victory Boys of Antigua over visiting Royal ’95 of Surinam by a 3:1 margin has secured their place in the next stage of qualifying.

Emanuelson Roche scored a consolation goal for Royal ’95 on 75 minutes. SV Victory proceed to the next stage of Caribbean qualifying where their opponent will be the victor of Series E, either Northern United FC (LCA) or Positive Vibes (VIR).
Series E
Following their 2:0 victory on the road in St Lucia against Northern United FC, Positive Vibes of the US Virgin Islands will be looking to confirm their spot in the next stage of qualifying when they host Northern United in the second leg of their series on 1 October.
The five victorious teams from the First Round of Caribbean qualifying will join North East Stars (TRI), Portmore United (JAM) and SV Centro Social Deportivo Barber (ANT) for the quarterfinal home-and-away fixtures scheduled for next month.
