As tabelas do Sub-14, Sub-16 e Sub-18 do Amazonas foram atualizadas nesta sexta-feira pela Federação Amazonense de Futebol (FAF). A fumaça que cobriu Manaus e piorou a qualidade do ar havia suspendido as partidas; com o novo calendário, elas voltam a partir de terça-feira (27).
No Sub-14, quatro jogos marcados para 9 de outubro passam para terça (27), nos mesmos horários e praças. Às 15h, Tarumã e Guerreirinhos se enfrentam na Colina, e Amazon City e Inter Academy jogam no Carlos Zamith. Uma hora e meia depois, às 16h30, Nacional e Manauara medem forças na Colina, enquanto MEC e São Paulo se enfrentam no Carlos Zamith. Ainda nessa faixa, Guerreirinhos e Nacional jogam na sexta (30), às 16h30, no Carlos Zamith.
No Sub-16, a quarta-feira (28) recebe quatro jogos que estavam em sábado (24). No Carlos Zamith, Inter Academy e Nacional abrem às 8h30 e, às 10h, é a vez de Sul América e Manaus. Na Colina, Tarumã encara o Santos Manaus às 8h30, com Manauara e Guerreirinhos fechando às 10h. A tabela também mudou o duelo entre Nacional e Sul América: sai de quarta (28) e vai para sábado (31), às 8h30, na Colina.
No Sub-18, Itacoatiara recebe o Manaus na quarta (28), às 15h30, no Floro de Mendonça. Tarumã e Nacional jogam na quinta (29), às 15h30, no Carlos Zamith — o duelo antes marcado na Colina. Mais dois jogos da faixa foram para domingo, 1º de novembro, de novo no Carlos Zamith: Nacional e Sul América às 17h30, Manauara e RB do Norte às 19h30.
