Carrington gets National U-15 coaching job.

By: Shaun Fuentes (TTFF).
21-Jul-2007 - Former National Senior Team midfielder Reynold Carrington has been given the job to prepare and coach this country’s National Under 15 team for the upcoming Caribbean Football Union Youth Cup.
The 37-year-old Carrington, who has represented T&T at the World Cup qualifying level and also captained the team at one time, has been focusing heavily on his coaching since retiring from playing. He was recently among the top performers at the coaching symposium with the Dutch Royal Academy which allowed him the chance to undergo further courses in Holland.
Current National Under 17 team head coach Anton Corneal, also youth development officer of the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation, said the decision was taken by the TTFF to hand the role to Carrington as he would gain the right exposure working with the youth and he also carried the right attributes for the position.
“This is really the first stage of the preparations for 2009 Under 17 World Championship and is one similar to what we went through two years ago,” Corneal told TTFF Media.
“This gives us a chance to start competing at an early age.. it’s where we start weaning players. This tournament is a good start for any Caribbean team,” he added.
“All the players may not go through the final stages in 2009 but once this type of early preparation is done properly you will get a nucleus that will stay together for two years similar to what we are now experiencing with the current team that has qualified for the World Championship in Korea,” Corneal continued.
Muhammad Isa has been the coordinator for the screening sessions which begun earlier this month at the Ato Boldon Stadium with some 120 players coming from four regional associations. He said that the response has been overwhelming thus far with 38 players being selected. Those players have undergone three training sessions under Carrington and assistant coach Terrence Marcelle at the Marvin Lee Stadium.
“We have seen a very eager bunch of players since the process started. The players have all shown keen interest and the response has been very nice from the different zones. We expect this to continue as the team itself continues preparations going into the tournament,” Isa said.
There will be another screening session at the Dwight Yorke Stadium on Wednesday from 10am for Tobago players and then one at the Mayaro Resource Learning Centre on Friday morning for the Eastern Counties Association. The current squad of 30 players will train this week as well at the Marvin Lee Stadium.
T&T will  host the third edition of the Caribbean Football Union’s Caribbean Under 15 Youth Cup from August 18-30, 2007. T&T  opens the tournament against Aruba on August 18.
This year’s tournament will not serve as qualifiers for the CONCACAF Final qualifying round  and subsequent World Championship unlike the 2006 edition which was an Under 16 level competition with the top Caribbean teams moving on to the final qualifying round towards the FIFA Under 17 World Championship. And only Central Americans El Salvador will be the guest nation participating this year.
Meantime, Corneal will continue to conduct training sessions with the current National Under 17 team at the Ato Boldon Stadium as they prepare for Korea.

Reynold Carrington tops coaches' wish list.

By Lasana Liburd.
14-Nov-2002 - Brazilian Rene Simoes could not do without him, Hannibal Najjar wants to keep him close although he is injured and all six Pro League coaches approached would welcome him on their team. Versatile Vibe CT 105 W Connection captain Reynold Carrington was the most influential player in the Trinidad and Tobago Pro League this season. Six coaches cannot be wrong.
The Trinidad Express newspaper gave eight Pro League coaches the chance to select their own All Star team for the 2002 season in whatever formation they saw fit.
They were also asked to select their top three players.
One catch, though. Noone was allowed to select a player from his own club.
Seven coaches complied with the request in time for this edition of the Sport Magazine.
The most popular system was the 3-5-2 and most coaches wanted Carrington at either sweeper-back or as a holding midfielder.
He also ended ahead of his peers in the running for the unofficial Player of the Year title when the coaches were asked to select the three most influential players.
A first pick carried five points while second and third pick meant three points and one point respectively.
Attacking CL Financial San Juan Jabloteh midfielder Otis Seaton was not far behind.
Hardly anyone is sure of what to call him these days. His passport, after all, bears the name Aurtis Whitley.
But his mixture of strength, enterprise and skill won him the respect of the coaches who struggled to contain him.
Seaton’s teammate, Ian Gray, was also praised for his stellar defensive performances which helped him to break into the national senior team for the first time.
Comfortable at central defence or left back, Gray looked sound in defence and attack for the eventual Pro League winners with his good reading and powerful running.
Defence Force striker Jason Scotland’s knack for crucial goals also earned him several picks.
There were special mentions for North East Stars utility player Nigel Hart, Caledonia AIA midfielder Conrad Smith and prolific Starworld Strikers forward Sean Julien who led the league in scoring.
Fire custodian Phillip Ramon-Fortune did not win a place but was also applauded for his leadership qualities and heart.
Arnold Dwarika missed approximately two months of play after being cut from Joe Public but the dreadlocked dribbler did not miss a beat when he joined rivals, Connection.
His was another popular name with the coaches.
Connection’s St Lucian striker Titus Elva input off the bench was met with respect as well.
But it was their captain, Carrington, who stole the show.

Reynold Carrington welcomes recall to squad.

15-Dec-2001 - Midfielder Reynold Carrington is ready to rumble as Trinidad and Tobago prepare for next month's Gold Cup in the United States.
Carrington, who was previously overlooked by national coach Professor Rene Simoes, has been given a new lease on life by being reunited with the Soca Warriors. The national coach previously stated that he wanted to groom 'young blood' and Carrington was no longer part of the Trinidad and Tobago team.
The 31-year-old W Connection player emphasised that the Gold Cup is a prestigious tournament. "It's a good opportunity to be back with the national team and to go to the Gold Cup which is a major event in the world of football. I had a very good season with W Connection so I think my confidence is very high," he said. Carrington praised Professor Simoes for doing "a good job with the Trinidad and Tobago team and you just have to give him what he expects of you". The national player said he deserved to be part-and-parcel of the national team. "In the position that I play which is defensive midfield, I am one of the more experienced in that position. Professor Simoes can see my enthusiasm for the game and I think it was a wise choice by him to include me in the squad. I am extremely confident of doing well in the Gold Cup," he ended.
