Two ISSA daCosta Cup quarter-final Group Four matches scheduled for Saturday have been postponed and will be played next Tuesday.

The matches are Clarendon College versus McGrath High and Cornwall College versus Manchester High.

ISSA president Keith Wellington said on Friday evening that Clarendon are 'unavailable' and due to the position in the group they thought it best to postpone both games.

Clarendon top the group with six points and a plus three goal difference. Cornwall and Manchester are on three points each. However, Cornwall have a plus four goal difference while Manchester have a plus two goal difference. McGrath are without a point.

"The Clarendon College team is unavailable. We don't want to play one match in the group and not the other. Both games are rescheduled for Tuesday," Wellington said.

When contacted, Clarendon's team manager Richard Palmer said all members of the team are suffering from a stomach problem.

The Group Three quarter-final games will be played. The two games scheduled are St Elizabeth Technical versus Frome Technical in Santa Cruz and Garvey Maceo High versus St Thomas Technical at Kirkvine. Both games will kick off at 1 p.m.
