Match Commisioner Anthony Gibbs (second right) explains the situation to Mount Pleasant’s head coach Theodore Whitmore (left) and the match officials prior to the start of the Jamaica Premier League game between Chapelton Maroons and Mount Pleasant at Effortville Community Centre.

Referee Andre Farquaharson called off the Jamaica Premier League (JPL) encounter between Chapelton Maroons and Mount Pleasant Football Academy at 1:20 pm today after hosts Chapelton Maroons failed to show for the 1 pm match at Effortville Community Centre.

Match Commissioner Anthony Gibbs said he had not gotten any correspondence from Chapelton nor the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) for the absence of the Clarendon-based team.

The Gleaner understands that since the firing of coach Lenworth Hyde, Chapelton Maroons are unable to field a team because several players are unavailable.
