I personally know 3 yths from here , one play for our fete-match yth team(ah born T&T yth, talented, no big league football experience), another a girl, plays for a Mtl div. 1 team, bout 3 rd level in this province, non are provincial level players, farless National. Well they starting full scholarships in the US, this September. Nothing to do with their academics. So my point is if these U17 players/parents want them to leave T&T, for whatever reason, they will be able to go, question may become, how do we get them back ? At some point in the decision making processes, they should have included some input from the parents/players or their representatives. If that has been the case, then my questions are moot.
