So how are these teams playing in the division 2. As far as I know there wasn"t a press release.
Breds, I can't answer that. But I just read that in the First Citizen Cup knock out competition, QPCC DIVII, defeated Caledonia. FC Phoenix Div One lost to Cunupia Eagles 3-1. All the other games the Div One teams won.

By Ian Prescott (T&T Express)
CUNUPIA EAGLES was among four Trinidad and Tobago Premier Football League (TTPFL) Tier One clubs advancing from the opening round of the $150,000 First Citizens Knockout Cup, but Neal & Massy Morvant Caledonia was not among them.
“Cali” were knocked out when going down 2-0 to Tier Two Queen’s Park. Jesus de Lecia (38’) giving the Parkites a first-half lead, before a 78th minute Rondell Paul own-goal confirmed the upset.
FC Phoenix was the other Tier One team knocked out on opening day, going down 3-1 to Cunupia Eagles in the only round of 32 match played between the top flight clubs.
Played at Arima Velodrome, the match could have gone either way. Joshua Alexander handed Eagles a 1-0 first-half lead, in the 14th minute. Haitian Pierre-Louise Peterson headed in Keron Cornwall’s corner-kick for 2-0 in the 75th minute, only for Phoenix to score from a corner as well, Kerry McDonald (82’) glancing the ball past goalkeeper Miles Goodman for 2-1.
Mickaeel Jem Gordon and Lejandro Williams looked dangerous for the Tobago visitors on the counter-attack, but Phoenix shot themselves in the leg when Andel Brown’s short back-pass allowed Azahrias Ali to intercept, brilliantly slip past goalkeeper Duvaughn Daniel and score into an open net, for 3-1 five minutes into added-on time.
At Mahaica Oval, Heritage Petroleum Point Fortin Civic posted a 4-0 win over Tier Two Central Soccer World, with Marcus Joseph and Ezekiel Kesar each scoring a brace.
Meanwhile, Terminix La Horquetta Rangers dismantled Eagles (Tier 11) reserves 6-1, with Isaiah Lee bagging a double, as the home team scored the first five goals at the La Horquetta Recreation Ground. And having lost 17 Tier One matches this season, Central FC were far too strong for Club Sando’s reserves, winning 6-0, with Saleem Henry notching a hat-trick.

T&T Express
TIGER TANKS Club Sando confirmed their dominance over AC Port of Spain women when defeating their arch-rivals 2-0 on Friday night at the Arima Velodrome to lift the Women’s League Football (WoLF) Inter-Island Cup.
Goals either side of half-time by striker Dennecia Prince (31’) and Afiyah Cornwall (71’) saw the Southern team complete the extended 2023 season unbeaten.
The Inter-Island Cup matches the champions and runners-ups of the Trinidad-based Claire George Conference of WoLF against the champions and runners-up of the Tobago-based Jamilya Muhammed Conference.
It was the second win for Club Sando over AC PoS in three meetings for the 2023 season, the first match ending in a draw. Club Sando finished as Trinidad champions with a comfortable 3-0 win over AC PoS late last year.
The Trinidad teams also dominated their Tobago opponents at the semi-final stage; AC PoS defeating Tobago champions Jewels 3-0 while Club Sando decimated the Tobago runners-up, Black Panthers, 7-0.
Among those who attended Friday’s final were national women’s coach Richard Hood, former TT Pro League CEO Julia Baptiste, as well as former national players Ricarda Nelson and Tasha St Louis.
What was on display was plenty enthusiasm if not very good football, with Club Sando often not being able to put together two good passes for long periods of the first half, but having plenty potency up front. To their credit, the finalists were not in season, the competition due to take place at the end of the league late last year.
Former youth striker Prince was good on the night, holding up the ball, and she opened the scoring with a powerful low shot from atop the penalty area, which slipped through the grasp of goalkeeper Mikael Yearwood. Renee Mike almost got Club Sando a second, a minute into first-half added-on time, her shot from outside the penalty area crashing onto the crossbar.
Also looking good for Club Sando was Khadidra Debesette, intercepting passes in central midfield and starting the counter-attack. However, playing in an unaccustomed more central role, skilful winger Alexcia Ali struggled on the sodden Velodrome turf and was eventually taken off.
It was only deep in the second have when Club Sando final killed off AC PoS. Prince again got the ball on top and shifted it wide to Cornwall, who did the rest, dribbling past several players and scoring with a low shot.
Left winger Shakeema Forestine was AC PoS’s biggest threat on the night, combining well with tall striker Bianca Mungalsingh. Forestine almost carved out an equaliser for AC PoS in the 34th minute, with her cross just flashing past the outstretched leg of Daneelyah Sandy on the far post.
With her team having fallen behind, Forestine cut inside in the 78th minute, her shot then going off the fingertips of goalkeeper Keri Myers, and onto the crossbar. AC PoS applied some late pressure and anxious moments in the Club Sando goalmouth, while at the same time always looking vulnerable to conceding a third goal themselves.

Joshua doing a phd and swam for McGill University Masters. More than that, Joshua won all of his 4 events(25-29) and broke 3 breaststroke Quebec Masters records along the way. Way to go Josh.
Lilman managed 2 gold and 4 silvers(7 events )as well. He says this is his last meet, he wants to focus on the powerlifting.
I personally hope not.
Congrats both you guys.

« Last post by Deeks on April 21, 2024, 01:52:45 AM »Does anybody know how the teams were selected for this year's ttpfl tier 2 division?
The club from the Div1 of the previous TTFA were assigned to Div.2 of the new TTFA. The pro-league clubs were assigned Div1. status. Some exceptions were Cunupia Eagles and 1976 Phoenix. They were assign to Div.1. Jabloteh and W Connection of the old proleague were given permission to sit out until they get their finances squared off. So Maybe next season we will see both clubs in Div1.
