Jamaica College (JC) has been thrown out of the Inter-Secondary Schools Sports Association (ISSA) Walker Cup final following a meeting of the association’s disciplinary committee over the eligibility of footballer Jamone Lyle.

The Old Hope Road-based school has been removed from the knockout competition.

The ruling by ISSA follows reports on Monday that Lyle, a minor, holds a signed professional contract with Jamaica Premier League club Waterhouse FC.
