Davao football - 6th Acosta Cup set

THE 6th Acosta Cup 2009 featuring girl booters will kick off on November 22 at the Tionko football grounds, Bolton Riverside, along Quimpo Boulevard.

Davao Football Association (DFA) general secretary Erwin Protacio said the tournament will have the 5-A-Side event for those born 1999 and later, 7-A-Side girls elementary and girls high school categories.


Protacio said they expect close to 30 teams competing in the free registration bootfest presented by Davao City Councilor Mabel Sunga Acosta and sponsored by the Sports Development Division of the City Mayor's Office and RDL Pharmaceuticals.

"Elementary and high school teams, however, will have to submit a certification from their school principals," Protacio said.

Players are also required to submit photocopies of their birth certificates as proof of their ages on tournament day. No birth certificate, no play," he added.

Deadline of confirmation is on November 18. (MLSA)
