Vincy Heat takes on Grenada at Grammar School Grounds Sunday, December 12 as the quest for places in the third round intensifies.

Jamaica plays St. Lucia, while Haiti meets St. Kitts & Nevis. French Guyana has earned a bye straight into the Third Round, while Martinique battles Cuba. Trinidad & Tobago is scheduled to play against British Virgin Islands in a match plagued by some controversy. British Virgin Islands clipped Bermuda for the second-place spot in the Group E played at the Arnos Vale Playing Field November 26 to 28.

However, the Bermudans have protested against three of the BVI players who represented St. Vincent and the Grenadines previously.

The Second Round Series victors will advance to the CFU Tournament’s Third Round that has three home-and-away encounters on 9 and 16 January 2005.

The Third Round winners will join the host Barbados in the CFU Final Round of the Digicel Cup from 20-24 February 2005. Three teams will qualify for the Gold Cup in July in the USA, and will also crown the Caribbean Champion.
