So the players on the team how were they selected ? Was there not some screening b4? these new players did the stalk bring them or the talented plaers parents just saw 24 millionaires created so they allowing them to play football.

Unless the following is true it is just Trini lateness as per usual.

U-16s in beach work out for CFU cup.
By: Shaun Fuentes.[/size]

This Saturday at UWI Grounds, St Augustine, some fifty players will come together for a final session from which new blood will be added to the existing Under 16 team which comprises the majority of players which represented T&T at the Under 15 regional tournament last year.
According to Corneal, this squad has been in training over the past few months and as such he is excited over the prospects of the bunch of players who he thinks would have matured over the year. Corneal was also in charge of the Under 15 team last year.
“We continued screening sessions because you can never end the search for players but we have in fact had a squad in training over recent times and this consists of the players who were in our Under 15 team last year,” Corneal told TTFF Media. “I am anticipating the shape of these players but we know it’s going to be tough going in any competition and we are prepared for that. The opportunity to have the likes of Mexico, Canada and the other guest teams like Panama, Guatemala and El Salvador will present us with a perfect opportunity to match ourselves with the outside team if we do in fact go through to the final CONCACAF stage.”
Some of the players of the Under 15 squad presently with the Under 16s include goalkeeper Jessie Fullerton, Franz Husbands, Sheldon Bateau, Leston Paul, Sean de Silva and Stephen Knox among others.

Corneal: U-16s must step it up.
By: Shaun Fuentes.[/size]

National Under 16 team head coach Anton Corneal has called on his players to step up if they intend to prevent their dream from being taken away from them over the next two days of group encounters in the Caribbean Football Union Under 16 Youth Cup. Corneal made the appeal after his team has to secure a late equalizer for a share of points in the 1-1 draw with Barbados at the Manny Ramjohn Stadium on Monday evening.
A Leston Paul 85th equalizer and several missed chances means that T&T must aim to get full points from Suriname when they meet from 5pm at the Ato Boldon Stadium on Wednesday and then they finish off the second round group phase against the powerful Haitians in Malabar on Friday. The two team finishing atop the four-team table will progress to the semi finals and will be guaranteed places in the CONCACAF Final round of qualification towards the FIFA Under 17 World Championship.
“We allowed Barbados to play their game and we waited too long to get into it. We finished the game the way in which we should have started and try to play throughout,” a disappointed Corneal told TTFF Media.
“Too many times we allow this to happen and the guys have to step up. We met a team that showed a lot of resistance but we created the chances later on and should have sealed it. This is a lesson for them because the other teams in the rest of the competition may not play the same way. They will make you pay for it.
“At this time our aim is to take back from Suriname what we missed out on today. The Haiti game comes after and we will take it one match at a time. But everyone’s in the same position now and there can be no complaints about the change of the format. There’s football to be played and we must do it if we want to make it through to the next round and then the World Championship,” Corneal added. Meantime, Barbados midfielder Edward Moss who went off injured in the second half is reported to have badly broken his leg in two places and the Wrexham youth player has been ruled out of the remainder of the tournament.

That is a real hard luck ..sounds like the tackle he succombed too was out of wildness and frustration (wit TT being down 1-0)...clearly this youth was (hopefully will continue to be) a player to watch...already playing in the youth system at Wrexham...how many TT youngsters are laying that kind of foundation?

Key clash for Young Boyz in Caribbean football union youth championships
published: Wednesday | August 23, 2006

Paul-Andre Walker, Staff Reporter

JAMAICA'S UNDER-17 footballers will start today's game 90 minutes away from making sure they at least find themselves in the third and fourth play-off of the Caribbean Football Union Youth Championships being held in Trinidad and Tobago.

The Young Reggae Boyz will run on to the Dwight Yorke Stadium pitch to face Panama, having already dispatched Canada in impressive fashion to lead the Group B quarter-finalists on goal difference.

Behind the eight-ball

Panama are behind the eight-ball having already lost to Mexico in a closely contested 2-1 game.

Despite that, Panama are still expected to offer a stiff challenge to the Jamaicans but coach David Hunt has said that his team is relishing the opportunity to face them before the CONCACAF qualifiers.

"I'm happy for the change made by the CFU because it gives us the opportunity to match up against the teams we will be playing against them in the CONCACAF qualifiers so, to me, it is a blessing in disguise," Hunt had said after his team's 3-0 thrashing of Canada.

While Jamaica are on a high, they have not forgotten that this game is still a must-win because they don't want to have to beat Mexico to make their way into the final.

A victory in today's 3:00 p.m. fixture could mean Jamaica only need a draw against Mexico to top the group. However, they will still have to await the result of the Mexico/Canada match-up.

The format of the competition dictates that the top teams from the two-group quarter-finals will play against each other in the final.

Five remaining

The second-placed teams from each group will face-off against each other in a third and fourth place play-off. The top CFU team, of which there are five remaining (Suriname, Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, Haiti and Jamaica), will vie for the top CFU spot.

The top two teams from the region will automatically qualify for the CONCACAF qualifiers. Jamaica, however, have already qualified for that tournament as CFU defending champions.

In other results out of the championships, Trinidad and Tobago drew their first quarter-final match against Barbados 1-1 while Haiti dismantled Suriname in a 7-1 affair

Boss, I en buying dat at all...once you could dream it, you can become it...You telling me that players cannot, without proper support (parents! coaches!), achieve the dream of playing abroad?

If you set it as a mission ... hardwork and DEDICATION make it happen!

That is part ofthe problem, we too often times ..say "nah I cyar be dis or dat, it too hard" ..... defeatist attitude... I hope that Bajan youth makes it and inspire some of the other WI youths along the way..

Bless

I think Robert Primus is the younger brother of San Juan Jabloteh's defender Ronald Primus (former U-23). Also, Kerry Baptiste (Jabloteh) and Christan Bapiste (Defence Force) is brothers.

NJIT Assistant Coach Kevin Leacock Helped Train u-16 National Team
njithighlanders.cstv.com

Aug. 22, 2007

NEWARK, NJ - NJIT assistant Kevin Leacock's coaching ability was recognized in July when he served as one of two assistant coaches that helped train the United States under-16 Girls National soccer team.

Leacock, who has special expertise in goalkeeping, helped in the training camp, which is designed to train and evaluate national-level girls as they advance toward representing the US in international competition with the ultimate goal of becoming full national team players.

Kevin Leacock joined the NJIT athletic staff in 2005, became the full-time women's soccer assistant coach in 2006.

An accomplished player in his own right, Leacock was the Operations Manager for NJIT Athletics in 2005-06, while also assisting NJIT as a part-time soccer coach in 2005.

A native of Trinidad and Tobago, he was a goalkeeper on that country's under-21 and under-23 men's national teams, where he played alongside many of the players who made international headlines for tying heavily-favored Sweden opening the 2006 World Cup.

Leacock represented his native country in the 1993 Central American and Caribbean Games in Puerto Rico and then at the 1994 Pan American Games in Argentina.

He came to the United States in 1995 as a student-athlete at Long Island University in Brooklyn, NY, and competed for four years as both a goalkeeper and a center back.

He and Tiffany Williams are the assistant coaches for NJIT head coach Alyssa Radu. The Highlanders are scheduled to open the 2007 season on Sunday, September 2 at Leacock's alma mater, Long Island University, with a 1 pm kickoff on LIU's Brooklyn campus.
