The competition was held on Saturday August 7th and Sunday August 8th, 2010.
Sponsors of the event were Wisynco, Marblue, Sunset Villas, C.A. Parchment & Son, Blue Marlin, Jake’s and Jack Sprat.

Coordinators of the event were Terrence Moxam, Andy Parchment, Bevan Gordon and Darin James.

Captain Horace Burrell president of the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) and Patrick Malcolm president of the St. Elizabeth Football Association were in attendance. Mr. Reneto Adams was also at the event and was involved in the ceremony before the final football match was played.

Fourteen Local Teams entered the competition and three Premiere League teams, Humble Lions from Clarendon and Barbican and Water House from Kingston.

Teams competed for the volleyball and football championship but there were other events to entertain the spectators as well. There was freestyle juggling of the football and a target shootout. A bottle of Powerade was place at the entrance of the goal; the football is place some distance away. Kickers line up to shoot at the bottle, hit the bottle you get the Powerade.

On the final day of the event August 8th the trophies were awarded.

In the volleyball competition the winner was Untouchables, Ruddock’s Best placed second and Spencer’s Finest placed third.

In the very competitive beach football competition, the finals boiled down to Humble Lions versus Water House. Humble Lions came out on top with a four to nil victory over Water House and became the first champions of the competition.

The Beach Boys and the Rock Boys both from Great Bay decided to share the third prize instead of squaring off for it.

Most Valuable Player of the football competition went to Enrique Rochester from Great Bay. The most disciplined team went to the Tranquility Bay All-Stars.

Mr. Jason Henzell and Mr. Patrick Malcolm promised that the 2011 event will be bigger and better.
