Jemmott determined to return.
By: Randy Bando (ttproleague)

Discarded Trinidad and Tobago midfield talent Kerwin Jemmott has been working on his fitness and a possible contract with former club Caledonia AIA for the past month, but a job offer is still far from the 29 year old Port of Spain resident.

On Wednesday during a training session with Caledonia, Jemmott suffered a dislocated shoulder putting him off his ‘back to full flight’ schedule for a week. The dislocated shoulder is a recurring injury which hampered the midfielder last season.

Time off the pitch for Jemmott means a setback for the former St Ann’s Rangers player who is considered a bit overweight and unfit by some. But Jemmott believes he is at a turn in his life and wants to return to professional football.

“I don’t want to stay away from training too long. I want to come back and give back to local football. I understand what it takes for me to be accepted and I am going to continue working on my goals,” said Jemmott.

Last season Jemmott was axed by Rangers in September for breach of contract as his love for minor league football got the better of him, another recurring negative that has invaded his professional career. He represented other clubs such as Caledonia, Joe Public, W Connection and Jabloteh.

Last November Jemmott travelled to Sweden on trial which was cut short after suffering a thigh injury which has kept him off the field until March when he joined Caledonia for training. Is time running out for the former midfield magic ? Jemmott is very optimistic.

He added, “I believe there are still opportunities for me. My focus now is getting into the Caledonia squad and then I hope that the national selectors give me another chance after seeing what I can offer. I want to get back on the national team and be part of World Cup 2010 preparations.”

Jemmott also said that his foreign agent is keeping in contact and when he is back to full fitness, foreign trials will be arranged.

It easy to beat up on dis fella and hard for me to resist...but I will. At some point he needs to recognize the direct causal links between his lack of fitness and his injuries. Lose some weight, work on your stamina and endurance even if that means staying off the pitch and just putting in some road work...or even better, organize ah li'l sumting and do some laps in a pool, or even run in place in the pool. Works wonders for your fitness, all at zero to little impact.

If this shoulder thing is a recurring issue get ah blasted harness...it cost like $50 US, maybe even less fuh de drugstore variety. Get yuh agent....or TI tuh send it down tuh yuh. C'mon man, lime bud tea eh go cure everything.

Jemmott boy do yuh ting yes.....I believe dat yuh is ah born again footballer...I giving yuh de benefit ah de doubt, unlike some people on dis forum...I would hate if I was ah man dat sincerely trying to change, and people keep saying dey doh believe I goh really change. Only you alone goh know if yuh really trying, so I for one cant judge yah.

I doubt dat after all de trouble soccer picnic get yuh into, yuh goh go back and do de same chupidness again....Hardest, ah putting meh head on ah block for yuh....please doh make it get cut off.....Prove de critics wrong and come back and play de people fitball, and train when yuh suppose to

i doh think trini players realise the benefits of getting fit is not just about playing its about developing your body physically and building ure endurance not about playing small goal and only running when yuh feel like it then running out on a big field for a competitive game ... the man is naturally a skinny guy and now he overweight its because he not running and training ...if he eh make up h mind to get fit he will end up just like croc a has been.... kinda sad

yeah from what I know it juss like any other joint that get 'sprain' or dislocate...one the ligaments holding the joint together get stretched from it coming out of place they stay stretched (because they not elastic) and so the whole thing remains loose and prone to repeated dislocations, until surgery tightens it back up.

You are correct about the need for surgery, especially in a full contact game like football. He should have had that many years ago if he wanted to be productive, ut maybe he reading Marvin (Dog) Andrews script.

‘Hardest’ comeback hit by injury again
Newsday

Monday, April 28 2008

FORMER TRINIDAD and Tobago midfielder Kerwyn “Hardest” Jemmott has been working on his fitness and a possible contract with former club Caledonia AIA for the past month.

But a contract offer for the 29-year-old Port-of-Spain resident is still a remote possibility.

On Wednesday, during a training session with Caledonia, Jemmott suffered a dislocated shoulder putting him off his “back to full flight” schedule for a week.

The dislocated shoulder is a recurring injury which hampered the midfielder last season.

Time off the pitch for Jemmott means a setback for the former St Ann’s Rangers player who is considered a bit overweight and unfit by some.

But Jemmott believes he is at a turn in his life and wants to return to professional football.

“I don’t want to stay away from training too long. I want to come back and give back to local football. I understand what it takes for me to be accepted and I am going to continue working on my goals,” said Jemmott, in an article on the Pro League’s website.

Last season, Jemmott was axed by Rangers for breach of contract as his love for minor league football got the better of him, another recurring negative that has invaded his professional career. He represented other clubs such as Joe Public, W Connection and San Juan Jabloteh.

Last November, Jemmott travelled to Sweden on trial but his stint was cut short after suffering a thigh injury which has kept him off the field until March when he joined Caledonia for training.

Jemmott is still optimistic that he will be returning to the local set-up.

“I believe there are still opportunities for me,” he said. “My focus now is getting into the Caledonia squad and then I hope that the national selectors give me another chance after seeing what I can offer.

“I want to get back on the national team and be part of World Cup 2010 preparations,” he added.

Jemmott said that his foreign agent is keeping in contact and when he is back to full fitness, overseas trials will be arranged.

Yesterday during the commentary on CT Vibe 105 Selwyn Melville describe him as wasted talent and he (Selwyn) acknowledged that Hardest is trying to work on his fitness etc. so that he could try to get on the National team, but he (Selwyn) thinks it just may be a tad too late for Hardest...

Well nothing we haven't discussed on here already right?? just thought I'd mention it anyway..

Sooo...nobdy else in football besides the people on this board know that he need to have surgery on the shoulder? We really in a mess when PROFESSIONAL teams doh have a physio on staff to tell that to a player.
