Women Warriors Thread

[gawd on pitch]

We just missed a bunch of opportunities. We are going to pay for not bringing in a veteran like Yaya.

TT 0 - 1 Guy

Yep

Allyuh really think that the 13 we put pass TCS was a sign we okay. Man, this women team playing real bad. This is become a repeat of the men's campaign.

according to the stats we have no shots on target

Can Jones bring someone who has refused to join the team. Come on Man!

You sure is that? I not doubting you.. But I find it hard to believe that she will say no to her last opportunity, considering her age..

Somebody said something similar on Facebook and she replied saying ppl talking things they do not know. So I don't believe she refuses to play

[maxg]

Oh yes. Facebook, another new bible according to man.
.Is she part of the team ? No. Is KJ a madman for not requesting her services  ? Possibly. Would she make a difference? Absolutely. Are we talking things we don’t know? Most definitely . See question one…

[Anbrat]

Saundra baron is a trini / American goalkeeper  , who last I recall was playing pro in the Israeli premier league  in 2019 .......not sure if she is still there , but should be a useful addition for the national women's team , I'm not dogging Kimika forbes but she  needs to clean up / correct some of the elementary slip ups  more recently !  I don't know if the occasion of playing  infront  of her home crowd / Tobago got to her , however she needs to buck up at this level .....nothing personal Kimika .  wishing the best .. Another name I haven't seen nor heard of in the mix is Kayla Taylor  , is
she still playing ball?

 

Wha geologic time scale yuh using as a benchmark? Yuh say that as if de Pleistocene epoch or "Ice Age' was YESTERDAY. But in truth, she should see another big context match when "hell freezes over".

But to your comment, more recently was this:

Not to trigger any traumas ... but that looked strikingly like an Ecuador moment.

And maybe Anbrat finally has a clear answer to the question he posed some posts after that ... because these events are episodic.

I hear you! Unfortunately I did not see the match. *sigh*

Is that a T&T record score?

Apparently record-equaling.

The posts that I saw before the match with Guyana led me to believe that we should win,how wrong can people be,I always thought we were flimsy,it always happen so I am not shocked.Guyana was always known for their world famous cricketers,now in recent times they are doing quite good in other sports,a new culture is taking over.

yes in other sports, they are becoming better in track and field. I see them win a handful of medals at CARIFTA. This was not the norm ten years ago

I HOPE THE WOMEN'S COACH KENWYNE JONES CAN TAKE AND UNDERSTAND CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM. We remember how he was as a player when he could not take many people telling him to become more agile and robust as a striker instead of just standing and waiting. Hopefully his mindset has changed as a coach

That mountain is climbable. The 3rd place team in both groups will advance to a playoff.

Have we looked at the Canadian pool ? I don't see any Canadian girls in the team. Also I haven't seen any from England.. Scouting ?

As for the other group, Haiti has gotten way better recently. And Jamaica is always finding English girls so they will be ready for Haiti.

A lack of agility and robustness was the critique of KJ?

The most favored and preferred grouping. Let's see if we conspire to screw it up.

Anyone see a squad list? The other nations have released their squads. By now CONCACAF would have had the rosters. Why is it a treasure hunt to locate T&T's representatives?

Good point. Also where is the scouting report from Canada and England. We are the only team out of Jamaica and Guyana who hasn't tapped into the Canadian and English pool. Trust meh on this one. Them girls in Canada and England are receiving a blind eye. Purposely being avoided.

 Well no matter which group we are in, there is no easy road but at the end of the day in sports anything could happen- mere minnows could choke a whale.   I think in the past we have had King out of Canada represent out national team and a Deleon from the US.
Currently  Canada national teams both men and women  are riding on the success of many WI descendants  and if they chose to represent Canada,  its a choice. The programing and coaching have been outstanding.

From 2004, I have advocating for TnT to look at the systems, coaching and  programing that Canada is building, hire some of their former players who are now coaching and resurrect  our derelict, antiquated approach. Our approach of a short term fix is not sustainable for  long term results.

It pains me yet it is with due respect that I applaud JA  progress in athletics and their national sporting programs: Net ball, football and Track and Field.

I ask again  given the economics  of a country like Haiti, how is it that they continue to find ways to  be successful  with their football program?

This is not a time to finger point or to scapegoat or to  look at TTFA for answers this is an all  encompassing issue that needs to be examine at all levels to find sustainable viable and competitive programing.

In my humble opinion, when you have a player of KJ who have played at a high level and who is imparting  his knowledge unto players, it bodes well for  results. But again he is one part of the clog. Resources and a talented pool of players are the other side of the equation. When you look at the  Canadian women's game,
the past couple of tournaments and preparation they have been undergoing- the level of play is not even comparable. However if there is ONE lesson from 2006 is that it is possible to take down giants in the game. TnT have done it before- we have taken out the like of USA from world Cup; we have battled with the likes of Mexico.

 I for one was in the Stadium when we had that Women's game against Ecuador, One win away  and we fouled that. I am looking at travelling to Mexico for these playoffs because I believe that we have earned a chance to create an upset

"Great moments are born from great opportunity, and that's what you have here ladies. That's what you've earned here . One game; if we played them ten times, they might win nine. But not this game, not in Mexico."

Go out , and run with them;  stay with them, and  shut them down because you can. You , have to see yourselves as the greatest women's football team TnT has produced.

You prepared yourselves for this moment to be  players—every one of you, and you were meant to be there . This is your time. Their time is done. It's over. I'm sick and tired of hearing about what a great football team the other countries have  . Screw 'em. This is your time. Now go out there and take it!"



Take this post it in your room read it every day; believe in it and lets turn thoughts into actions and beliefs into a reality. Ah taking meh pension money to travel to Mexico to cheer you on.

[Deeks]

ABTrini, the programs has to go back to starting these ladies when they are at primary school level, according to former national player and HS school coach, Mike Grayson. If it does not start at U-8, U-9, U-10 etc, we eh going nowhere.

T&T Senior Women off to Monterrey.
TTFA Media.

This country’s Senior Women’s Squad, led by head coach Kenwyne Jones will depart for Monterrey on Wednesday for a residential training camp ahead of the Concacaf Women’s Championship.

T&T will do battle with Canada, Panama and Costa Rica in Group B of the 2022 Concacaf W Championship (CWC) in Monterrey from July 4th.

Jones will travel with a training camp squad with the Final 23-Player Roster for the tournament to be announced in due course.

The tournament is part of the Confederation’s new women’s senior national team ecosystem and is scheduled to be played in Monterrey, Mexico, between July 4-18, 2022. It serves as the qualification tournament to the FIFA Women’s World Cup (FWWC) 2023 and, as part of an exciting new format, the Champion will qualify directly to the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.

Group A: United States, Mexico, Jamaica, Haiti
Group B: Canada, Costa Rica, Panama, Trinidad & Tobago

Jones’ squad faced Panama in two friendlies in Couva last October, drawing both games 0-0 and 1-1 with Panama netting a late equalizer in the second outing. Panama however came away 3-0 winners when the two nations met in the 2018 Final round of qualifiers. Current squad members Liana Hinds, Karyn and Kimika Forbes, Rhea Belgrave and Lauryn Hutchinson were part of the side back then.

After round robin group stage plaY in Monterrey, the top two teams in each group will move on to the semifinals and in doing so, qualify directly to the 2023 FWWC (four teams). Meanwhile, the third placed teams in each group will qualify for a 2023 FWWC Intercontinental Playoff (two teams).

The semifinals, final and third-place match will be played in a single elimination format, with the Champion qualifying for both the 2024 Paris Olympics and the inaugural Concacaf W Gold Cup, to be held in 2024. The runner-up and third-place teams will also square off in a Concacaf Olympic play-in series, scheduled for September 2023. The winner of that play-in series will also qualify for the 2024 Paris Olympics and the 2024 Concacaf W Gold Cup.

Jones joins Hood in race for women’s coaching job
By Nigel Simon (T&T Guardian)

Former national senior men’s football team captain and national women’s team coach, Kenwyne Jones has re-applied for the vacant head coaching role of the women’s team.

This was confirmed by the 38-year-old former England and USA-based T&T striker when contacted on Monday.

In a brief response when asked about his application for the position, Jones in a WhatsApp message replied, he submitted his application to the T&T Football Association (TTFA) on Sunday, the deadline date, and in the process joined another former national woman’s senior team and youth coach Richard Hood as the front runners for the position.

Hood, who was recently relieved of his head coaching role of the Police FC team in the T&T Premier Football League and led the national Under-20 women’s team to the quarterfinal round of the 2020 CONCACAF Championships and has served as coach of the Under-15 girls’ team, as well as assistant to Norwegian Even Pellerud at the 2010 FIFA Under-17 Women’s World Cup on home soil, said he submitted his application on Friday last.
