trinity cross , having time to prepare is one thing , what you do in that time is another . Shabazz had the u-20's in camp from november to january , training twice a day . He boasted that the team was fit ,aggressive and full of passion . When we saw the team play in Guatemala , they could not string 4 or 5 passes together and resorted to kick and run. On the team's return ,Shabazz blamed the girls lack of fitness for their performance.
In June , the senior team , after training for more than a month, went to a watered down CAC games in Venezuela.There was no Mexico, no Costa Rica , no El Salvador and of course no USA or Canada .Still we could not win..losing to Venezuela and Haiti and finishing second.That was the best group then according to Shabazz .
So here we go again . This team will be in training for a little less than a month before it goes to Mexico. Shabazz is boasting about having the best team in terms of 'technical skill and intensity' which suggests that there will be new people added to this team. But when you look at the invitees..who is new ?
Mollon and some others who can make a difference have lost faith in the technical staff and appear to have voiced their opinions so now are 'not considered '. So what best team Shabazz talking about.
I don't know if you mr. trinity cross , have ever gone to Shabazz and Marlon's session but I have seen them in action time and time again over the last decade with the majority of these girls .With another technical staff ,these girls ,I am sure will perform better. But with Shabazz and his clique of jokers...waste of time . Even Pellerud needs to act like the technical director he was appointed to be and get rid of all those coaches who are underachieving...starting with JAMAAL and MARLON .I am hoping he will do that when he returns from his vacation so that we can once again see our girls true potential .
