Since kicking off on December 21, 2019, the Next Level Consulting (NLC), Limited U19 Community Invitational Tournament has seen some of the nation’s best youth footballers going against each other on a home and away basis at their home community grounds.  So far, hundreds of fans have been able to attend the exciting tournament weekend games which have kicked off at 4:30PM, and Wednesday games which have started at 6:30PM.

At the halfway mark, MaGuaya United and Gasparillo Youths lead their respective groups with full points from their games played (see standings below). The top three teams from Group A and the top five from Group B will go into the tournament quarter-finals, starting February 1, 2020. To encourage even more fan participation, the Tournament committee has launched its Instagram page, “@NextLevelU19football” and added two social media hashtag contests.

#NextLevelU19football for best fan video of goals scored during the competition. To compete, video must be accompanied by name of both teams, venue, date of the video and the hashtag, #NextLEvelU19football. Winner of the best video showcasing tournament goals, as adjudged by the Tournament Committee, will receive $500 cash prize at the Tournament Awards ceremony, and

#NextLevelU19MVP for nominating fan MVP with the best photo of their team MVP candidate during each Tournament game. The photo must showcase, and feature the MVP candidate at the game venue in uniform (before, during, or after games). The MVP candidate name, team, venue, date of the photo and the hashtag, #NextLevelU19MVP must be attached to the photo. Tournament committee will also take social media MVP vote tally into consideration for final overall tournament MVP.
