SANTA CRUZ, St Elizabeth -- After admitting mistakes in his first trip to the daCosta Cup finals six years ago, STETHS' coach Andrew Edwards says the lessons he learnt then will help him win today when his team faces Manchester High in the finals at Jarrett Park.
In 2003, Edwards guided his alma mater Titchfield High to their second final and first since 1982, but they lost to Frome Technical.
On Thursday, Edwards told the Observer that in 2003 he "did not handle the game day situation well" and admitted to "anxiety and nervousness".

The lessons learned from then he said would serve him well today. "I feel better equipped to deal with the final now and I am sure I won't make the same mistakes."
He credited the "environment at STETHS" for his approach, and the experience he has gained since.
Edwards, who played daCosta Cup for Titchfield and has a degree in geography from the University of the West Indies-Mona, left the Portland school for Santa Cruz last year when he took them to the Inter-zone round in his first season.
