The Watkins Initiative for Nations (WIN) of Liberian Journalist, Y. Solomon W. Watkins who is now Representative Hopeful of Montserrado County, Electoral District #10 has championed and sponsored the recognition of the Nation\u2019s all-time number one goalkeeper.<\/p>\n

WIN in collaboration with the Divine Town Sports Federation over the weekend organized a two-day tournament in honor of Pewee Bestman for his immense contribution to the nation\u2019s growth and development through sports.<\/p>\n

Following the days of sporting activities held on Old Road, WIN certificated the all-time Liberian best goalkeeper for his services to the country.<\/p>\n

The Grand final of the two-day sporting activities which was unifying and entertaining, saw Block \u201cB\u201d managed to defeat Block \u201cC\u201d 11 to 10 goals after 90 minutes of play at the Kailondo Field in Transformer.<\/p>\n

L$15,000 was awarded to the first and second winners. L$ 9,000 was given to Block \u201cB\u201d; while Block \u201cC\u201d received L$6,000 cash prize as being promised and announced. A trophy was also given to Block \u201cB\u201d for its victory over Block \u201cC\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am glad that such a game can be organized in my honor by the Watkins Initiative for Nations (WIN) with support from Hon. Y. Solomon W. Watkins, our District representative aspirant who is also a resident of our community, Divine Town.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the first tournament ever organized in my honor by residents of our community.<\/p>\n

\u201cI promised to always be that good citizen you have recognized today and will forever remember your recognition of my services to Liberia through sports.<\/p>\n

\u201cThanks so much to our young honorable to be. I wish you all the best Mr. Watkins.\u201d Mr. Pewee Bestman said while praising Rep. Hopeful Watkins for his many contributions to District #10 and for sponsorship of the tournament held in his honor.<\/p>\n

In a remark, WIN\u2019s Vision Bearer and District#: 10 Representative Hopeful, Y. Solomon W. Watkins thanked Mr. Bestman for accepting to have been honored by the Watkins Initiative for Nations.<\/p>\n

According to him, people like Mr. Bestman should be celebrated by all Liberians, especially leaders of the country because of Mr. Bestman immense contribution to Sports, Growth, Peace and Development of Liberia.<\/p>\n

He said, Mr. Bestman like other former players of the National Team should be always remember for their roles played in Liberia.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn this country, we find it difficult to recognize the contribution of good people, rather we defend people who do not worth our recognition. In fact, we even praised them when they steal from us more and give us crumbs. The More they steal from us, the more we praise them. We even sometimes intend to give them power continuously without thinking they are doing us more harm than help only because few are benefiting from their corrupt practices. We need to change that beginning with District#10. We need to recognize good people and praise them for their contributions to our communities, districts, Liberia and the world when noticed. Mr. Bestman is one of those to recognize. His contributions in the world of sports are immeasurable. For this we have come to tell the world that Mr. Bestman is a good man that requires our recognition also,\u201d the District#10 Representative Aspirant noted.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the District# 10 representative aspirant used the opportunity to officially announced the hosting of District#10 inter community league which is expected to start early next year, 2023.<\/p>\n

The tournament, according to him, will bring together all 32 communities of the District.<\/p>\n

Hon. Watkins said preparation are already underway for the successful organizing of the league which he anticipates will be an annual event if he becomes representative comes 2024.<\/p>\n

Watkins disclosed that when he becomes District#10 representative such an initiative will be an annual event for the district under his leadership.<\/p>\n

At the initial stage of the event, a mini parade was held from the honoree\u2019s resident (Goalkeeper Pewee Bestman) in Divine Town through the Tokpah Camp community, VIP Road toward the main Joe Bar Market to the principal streets of Old Road Community and then to the Kalando Sports Patch in the Transformer Community, Old Road.<\/p>\n

The game was held under the sponsorship of Hon. Y. Solomon W. Watkins through the Watkins Initiative for Nations (WIN) in collaboration with the sports federation of Divine Town Community.<\/p>\n
