JC’s Walker Cup ban overturned, school instead placed on probation

Jamaica College (JC) have now been placed on a two-year probation by the Inter-Secondary Schools Sports Association (ISSA) Appeals Board for using an ineligible player during the ongoing schoolboy football season, replacing an earlier decision that would have barred the school from next year’s Walker Cup competition.

The latest ruling, announced in an ISSA press release, follows a meeting of the Appeals Board last Friday to review Jamaica College’s appeal against decisions made by the association’s Disciplinary Committee and subsequently upheld by its Executive Committee.

The Appeals Board set aside the decision that JC would not be invited to participate in the 2027 Walker Cup and instead placed the school on two years’ probation, effective November 6, 2026.
