These youth teams are expected to participate in various youth tournaments in the coming months.

Francois also expressed satisfaction that the VSADC U-13 team was currently performing extremely well in the Northern Zone Under-13 tournaments and urged the team to continue to aim for excellence.

Emerson Auguste of Peter & Company Distribution officially presented the Lucozade-branded uniforms to the VSADC Youth Academy’s U-16 team and he, too, commented on the proud history of Lucozade in local youth sports, especially track and field.

On hand to receive the uniforms on behalf of VSADC were club president, Curtis Paul and Secretary Craig Anderson.
