What does it take to join Trinidad and Tobago football side
-
Skills and thick skin.
Flex the Mod have the contacts also.
-
First of all, there is no U-18 team. In that age range, there is an U-17 and U-20 team. Be a standout with your school and/or club and you may be on the radar.
-
If you in foreign, think about the clash with the school semester also.
-
Under 18 is he still going to school?
-

If you are really only now starting to play football, then you should not even be thinking about the national team. You should be focussed on learning the fundamentals of the game and getting into some sort of structured footballing environment.

In that case, you will have to break into the first team and perform consistently. The national U-20 team does not typically have open tryouts, so you will have to catch the eye of the coach.

Have you done any strengthening programs. That is important too. I hope your club has a strength coach and program.
-
It would also be nice to do some video clips ad have them on youtube.
At 20, you should be making Jabloteh's senior team and once that happen the coach will see you.
-
I think wen he said now starting he meant in a professional environment. Correct me if I'm wrong
-
Im not on the team as yet im just training and getting my self fit so when they start the screening in January i can be picked to join the reserve team or something....im average size btw i just need to get in shape

Wrong country. The country is called Trinidad AND Tobago. Get that ingrained in your system first...because if you do end up reppin de country, I would expect you to respect the entire country and not do what is normal.....Speaking as a former national footballer who is from Tobago...and had no problem representing the ENTIRE COUNTRY.

Sorry about that but do u have any info ?

Young sir/lady (knowing full well that Adrian has been used as both a male and female name)...understand this. Unlike many on this board who don't really care about the whole Trinidad and Tobago thing, it's downright disrespectful to the entire country and its citizens to call the country something it's not. I have never represented the country of TOBAGO nor ever will. I was born on the island of Tobago and happy to rep the people who are from and live here. Upsetting isn't a strong enough term when I hear our national athletes, who should know better, do not. I'm making a plea to you.....RESPECT THE COUNTRY OF TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO.

I was off ah dat long time. Yuh notice my last post also had the contact info for the TTFA....AND the individual understood the error and even changed the heading of this post?
Do I know if SJ Jabloteh has a female team or teams? No. They could. I do not know.
I will buss up my mouth when it comes to representing this twin-island republic. No individual who wants to represent the country should be allowed to speak of one-half of it. It would mean (whether intentional or not) that you have failed to represent the entire body of people. You should try explaining that to people like Dwight Yorke, Kelly-Ann Baptiste and our newest Prime Minister Dr. Rowley.
If this youth makes it on to the national team....I for one will be very happy. I simply want represent ALL OF US...Trinbagonians.

Mr. G I understand where yuh coming from yuh know!and I agree is Trinidad and Tobago! Personally I always say Trinidad and Tobago, but it would be ignorant to think that everyone refers to TnT as Trinidad..is it wrong yes, but at the same time it's a common error made with no bad intent! Another thing is, is trinibagonians that live abroad would be aware so to speak to refer to the island as it rightly should! Locals not so much!!! This sense of national pride should be taught from kindergarten right up as the honorable Dr. Rowley suggested!
My point was yuh come down harsh on d man...he not as experienced as us...probably never even left sweet TnT for all we know! Positive reinforcement instead of criticism pal!
