The University of the West Indies (UWI), Mona Campus, has withdrawn from the upcoming Premier League ahead of plans by Professional Football Jamaica Limited (PFJL) to return to the field of play under the Government’s latest relaxed COVID-19 restrictions. 

The UWI, Mona, which created history in 2015 when it qualified for the Red Stripe Premier League (RSPL), has been struggling over the last few years to effectively meet the financial obligations required to keep The UWI Football Club (UWI FC), playing at this level.
