While I was in T&T I did my rounds on the local football circuit, from the pro league to the zonal football leagues.
I saw a lot of teams, playing on fields that were not properly marked, teams turning up short of players, teams playing in mismatched uniforms,no medical kits, the list goes on and on.
It seems that the TTFF and corporate sponsors do not care about the state of local football.
Some communities no longer seem interested in football, as much as they did before.
For instance Arima only have one football team in association football.
No surprise that arima senior comprehensive are not doing well in the SSFL.
The team is called Creek fc, while La Horquetta have got a team as well they are not really
in arima.
The Larry Gomes stadium only has a few hundred people for the pro league games.
Big players like Derek King and Gorian Highley were not playing at the time i was there.
Derek is injured and Gorian playing d arse.
Derek needs an operation but he could not afford it.
As for Angostura, everybody on this message board should stop drinking dey rum.
They are sponsoring a super league team, phoenix fc which plays in the super league and they have not provided a medical kit for this season.
Phoenix fc has not received a new uniform for four seasons and they are pushing for a place in the proleague next season.
This is the same angostura that threw a big fete or fetes in Germany for the world cup.
They are big time waggonists as i see it.
For anyone that does not know,Phoenix fc are a team based in Canaan, bon accord, Tobago.
They are coached by Terry Williams, Dwight Yorke's first coach.
I does follow football right through T&T and this team has some good players.
If they were properly sponsored they would go places i am sure.
JAH BLESS RASTAFARI
