presenting Bermuda Football Association with another scheduling headache.

Saturday night's double-header between Hamilton Parish and St. David's and Somerset and Dandy Town was hit by the weather and has already been rescheduled for tonight at Somerset.

Only one match survived yesterday's heavy downpour, that being the Second Division encounter between St. George's and Paget at Wellington Oval.

The home team won 3-1 with Andrew Richardson putting them ahead from the penalty spot in the 20th minute.

Ryan Steede made it 2-0 for St. George's in the 23rd minute before Dale Russell pulled a goal back for Paget in the 33rd minute, also a penalty. Marco Lovell made certain of victory for St. George's with the third goal in the 72nd minute.

Wayne Tucker of Paget was sent off in the 87th minute for a second cautionable offence.

The day's other scheduled Second Division match between Wolves and Somerset Eagles, which could have sealed promotion for Wolves, was also called off.

Also hit were the First Division matches between Hotels and Devonshire Cougars at Southampton Oval, North Village and PHC at Bernard Park, Vasco and Southampton Rangers at PHC Stadium and Boulevard and Devonshire Colts at St.

David's.

The matches are tentatively scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday nights with First Division double-headers.

On Tuesday, Hotels play Devonshire Cougars and Vasco meet Southampton Rangers at BAA Field, while on Wednesday, North Village take on PHC and Boulevard play Devonshire Colts. No date has yet been set for the Second Division match between Wolves and Somerset Eagles.
