The visitors were led by strikes from Jaheem Hazel, Romero Hanley and Anthony Stephen.
Also, Newcomers Buckley’s United, who replaced Jets after they withdrew because five of their players were barred from playing due to national under-15 team commitment, started on a bright note with a 3-0 win over Urlings, another first-timer. Dennison Hodge netted twice while Jaden Joseph scored once.
