Hosted at the Campden Park Playing Field, South Leeward found themselves behind, as Ishan Adams and Jomo Toppin gave Barrouallie a two-nil lead.

But South Leeward, on the back of strikes from Adtwin Bruce, Kimron Charles and Tevin Slater, came from behind to snatch victory in front of their home supporters.

South Leeward had bossed the semi- finals encounter over Layou, 2-0. Tevin Slater had accounted for both goals.

Barrouallie’s route to the finals saw them facing Buccament in the first eliminator, and Layou in the second.

Barrouallie doused Buccament 5-1, with Kyle Edwards knocking in a hat-trick and Chavel Cunningham the other two.

When Barrouallie met Layou on Saturday, both Edwards and Cunningham were on the score sheet in their 2-0 triumph.

The other team in the competition was North Leeward.

The All Leeward competition is a testing ground for the National Inter Community League, set to open this Sunday, February 8, at the Victoria Park.
