With the inaugural Popeye’s Challenge Cup to get under way today, Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) President Michael Ricketts said the competition will bring high-quality games back to communities islandwide.

Ricketts welcomed the Challenge Cup and said it has brought back a new wave of excitement for Jamaican football.

“It has been a while that we have not had a competition of this nature, so we are very, very excited at the prospect and it's certainly brought back a level of interest,” Ricketts said.
