Antigua St John's - After two weeks, over 300 entries from at home and abroad, and judges’ deliberations to select a top-eight list, the "name the Antigua & Barbuda football team" contest is in the final phase.
People can text to vote up until midnight on Sunday. They can text their choice to 774-3307. Voting is open around the clock.
The names are: Beach Boys, Benna Boys, Benna Rebels, Black Ants, Iron Bandits, Wadadli Jam Bulls, The Party Crashers, and Rhythm Warriors.
The contest began by inviting submissions, along with a brief rationale, to the Antigua & Barbuda Football Association (ABFA).
“We were overwhelmed by the response,” General Secretary of the ABFA Gordon “Banks” Derrick said. “We anticipated maybe 50 to 60 submissions, but in the end, we were able to compile a list of more than 300 names, and that count does not include the names that we received more than once. In those instances, we recorded the submission that came in first."
The rationales submitted for the names will form part of the radio discussion.
