In cataloging the songs submitted for the Sweet Soca Competition, 6 songs that had been submitted on time were inadvertently not transferred to the Judges’ play list and were therefore not judged in the original session.
As a consequence, an emergency session with the judges was convened to examine and assess the 6 songs.
As a result, Edwin Yearwood will now join the 16 semifinalists who originally qualified, and along with the reserve, will now perform and compete at the semi finals stage of this competition on July 6th at the Pork Lime in Wildey.
The National Cultural Foundation (NCF) uses a cataloging system where the songs submitted are transferred to an electronic library where they reside until they are moved to the judges play list from which they are played for the judging session.
The NCF will be reexamining this internal logging system to ensure that something of this nature does not recur.
