THE SECOND HALF of the Digicel Premier League season got off to an exciting start last Sunday night at the Barbados Football Association (BFA) Wildey AstroTurf with three thrilling encounters to the delight of the ever-growing crowd on hand.

Direct TV Paradise managed to get by stubborn neighbours Silver Sands 1-0, courtesy a 48th minute strike from Jabarry “Papi” Chandler, to secure their place in the middle of the league table.

The Barbados Defence Force Sports Programme’s title defence may have suffered a critical blow as they went down 2-0 to the University of the West Indies (UWI).

In the feature game, the return of front man Diquan Adamson almost sparked an incredible result for Pride of Gall Hill but they were narrowly beaten 3-2 by table-toppers Rendezvous.
