A game between ACS Ballers and Juggernauts of Salisbury on Friday was postponed at half-time due to heavy showers.
According to a press release from the Dominica Amateur Basketball Association, the rain made playing conditions dangerous. The second half of that game will continue at a later date. A second match expected to be played the same night between RJS Blazers and Castle Bruce Oilers was also called off because of the bad weather.

Good goin fam! Good to see the Paix Bouche boys doing their thing!
way to go eagles we are always the last men standing we don’t speak that much never undermine our action
come on x-men we can do this.. will get them next time.
I see my fam at the top of the food chain…Lynvor n Brad…thats wassup…
The Eagles where faster then the Xmen, but the absence of Garth definitely had an effect on the Xmens play. I’m not saying the outcome would have been different but it’s ridiculous to say the team & their game wasn’t effected by him not being there. Do they meet again in regular season?
Well Done Lynvor.thats how the Pauls do ti.
the x-men was caused by their inability to stop the speed of the paix bouche eagles not because of the absence of garth…congrats paix bouche.
