Many people have argued that Shandhon Whinchester is better than his star counterpart -Jerrol Britto , both are great youth prospects compared by many sports personalities , coaches etc as the next Yorke and Latapy. Who have known them or seen them play could vouch to this as being a serious comparision , youth with loads of talent and potential since the ages of 9 ,10,11 at their repective clubs playing at least 3 to 4 age groups higher and still shineing.

Guys, remeber these young men have a long way to go ... do not create to much noise and raise the expextation level such that they are unable to meet it.  Allow them the opportunity to learn the game before we start talking about the next Latapy and Yorke,

[ZANDOLIE]

[kiffysmooth]

Stats

6 = South
6 = North
3 = East
2 = Tobago
1 - Central

[Small Magician aka Wazza]

WTF lol?

What kind of shit is that?  at least Leston and King should have been there

[Israel]

The team was probably selected from teams in the league and not intercol. I not trying to be bias but I at least expected to see Gay, De Silva and Paul on the team.

Yeah it seem so......Saints were in the Senior Division this year so i think that disqualified any of their players from being selected.

[real madness]

allyuh cyah expect saints players to get selected based on ah 4 match run while other teams play about 20 matches..be serious...that being said i am surprised that players such as jamal clarence and jamal gay have been left out based on reports...since i didnt see any games i cant really comment too much except that team selection is just like this forum...personal opinion.

[grskywalker]

Da Silva and Paul are on the National team with World Cup experience and they ain't get pick!!!!!

STEEEUUUUPPPPPSSS Wether they from CIC or not should not matter they are a class above the rest and should have been chosen!!!

But I am not surprised at all, our school has always been subject to this injustice

[Youth Baller]

Many people ignorant to the fact would not know that the coaches had to work with  players who actually came out to the screening sessions.  Not the big bois who feel they have name and should get pick because of this , including ,Leston Paul , Kevin Mussio , Sean DeSilva etc.At any team ,National etc sometimes the best players dont come out to train. This side is actually very strong in all parts , from defennce , midfield and fowards. Jammal Clarencnce is injuried and Gay did not go to Screeniing.

[jr sams]

I think selection may have been based more on the league play. They may have had criteria like minimum number of games played, which would have ruled out any Saints men...but that's pure speculation on my part

Sam...please bear in mind that these are 16-17 year old yutes you're talking about and not grown men.  I hardly see it necessary to be disparaging other people children by calling them 'shit'.

Hush yuh ass!!!

[swood]

OK just to clear the air on a couple of questions...please note I am giving the explanations and not necessarily in total agreement with them.

1) The All Star team was selected based on nationwide (including Tobago) screening at different venues over the last month. Players HAD to attend at least one to have a chance to be selected.

2) Jamal Gay and Daniel Joseph were not selected because they did not attend any of the screenings despite the constant requests from Coach Shawn Cooper. The reasons for them not attending is another topic of discussion.

3) Only players from teams in the CHAMPIONSHIP division were allowed to participate in screenings. Hence no CIC players nor any other Senior Division players were eligible. There were also quite a few Senior Division players in teams other than CIC that looked good...so it's not only CIC that was affected.

On a personal note...This arguably is not the strongest possible team from the league, however the boys are going to face tough opposition in Jamaica when they play the winners of the Manning and Da Costa competitions...the very least we should do IMHO is support the players that have been selected regardless of school, zone or personal opinions.

Schoolsoccernet will provide the usual coverage of the games as they happen in Jamaica.

All I sayin is dat we look out for one another oui. If dey pick ah all-star team, ah Fatima man go like to see Fatima represented, just like ah Malick man, just like ah Gustine man... just like ah Saints man. Dais all I attesting to.

As to how well either of us on this forum doing for we-self, well, imho, we parents have more to do with dat than what high school we went. So I wasn goin dey at all with my comments nah.  

Just one Saints man picking up for another. Dais just how we do it. No luv lost...

Of course not 

My comments were more to the outrage expressed by Gryskywalker...that somehow the selectors have something against CIC, when in fact when I was coming up Saints, QRC and dem other 'big' schools dominated de scene.  Nobody was bawling 'injustice' then of course.

Add to that man come in saying Saints men have ah right to be arrogant (which yuh co-sign on).  I juss want to know what allyuh have ah 'right' to be arrogant about...  going tuh CIC??  Hence my comments.  But my comments ent really fuh you, I know where your head is so no scenes still

That Midfield is very strong. Any one of thos players in the midfeild on a good day coudl tear a team apart and control the whole play. Would hate to see what would happen if all 6 of them have good games.
