Chelsea's youth team at 5:00 pm on November 5th
St Benedict's Prep at 5:00 pm on November 6th
Mexico Under 18 at 4:00 on November 8th (Saturday)

Anybody know for sure if we sending a squad. I've heard nothing, but these are the kinds of games (at least vs Chelsea and Mexico) that I would love to see us play.

The Saturday game v Mexico is one that me and I'm sure a few of us in the Northeast US could make and give the fellas some support. They will need it..cuz it will be cold

I know but as usual some people will miss that point...and start aniticipating T&T playing games in this tournament without any type of announcement from the TTFF...and when it goes downhill people start to rant and rave as usual

IRONMEN TO CO-SPONSOR NEWARK INTERNATIONAL CUP

St. Benedict’s Prep Soccer Team and Alumnus Claudio Reyna Join GRS Dribble 2008

 

Newark, N.J. (Thursday, October 9, 2008) – For the second consecutive year, the New Jersey Ironmen will be co-sponsors of the Newark International Cup, hosted by St. Benedict’s Preparatory School.  The host soccer team, along with former U.S. National Team Captain and SBP alumnus Claudio Reyna, will also join the Ironmen this Monday when they welcome philanthropist Ethan Zohn to Newark for a leg of his Grass Root Soccer United Dribble 2008.

 

“Monday will truly be a spectacular event on so many levels,” Ironmen General Manager Tony Novo stated.  “Not only are we honored to welcome Ethan Zohn and Grass Root Soccer to this city for their incredible cause, but now we have the opportunity to include our soccer brethren from St. Benedict’s.  It pleases me to see the collaboration of these international causes being brought together by the international game of soccer.  Here we have Ethan bringing to Newark an event of worldwide significance while we incorporate the Newark International Cup where St. Benedict’s is bringing some of the best soccer clubs in the world to this city.” 

 

Zohn is currently engaging in a 550-mile trek from Foxboro to Washington, DC, in which he is dribbling a soccer ball on a path that will have him arrive in the nation’s capital on December 1 for World AIDS Day.  Starting at 3:00 this Monday, he will leave Lincoln Park in Newark and will eventually conclude this portion of his journey at Prudential Center.  Once Zohn arrives there, a press event regarding the activities of the day will be conducted in the Verizon Tower.  It will be then that the Ironmen formally announce their co-sponsoring of the Newark International Cup, and the entire event is open to the public.

 

Three international youth sides will join host St. Benedict’s Prep for the 16th Annual Newark International Cup, which will be played at the soccer facilities at the New Jersey Institute of Technology.  The Mexican U-18 National Team, Trinity & Tobago U-18 National Team and Chelsea FC from England will all take part in the tournament scheduled for November 3-10.  A youth clinic is also planned for Saturday, November 8, at St. Benedict’s Prep. 

 

The New Jersey Ironmen are currently seeking members for their official kids club. Those interested in joining can click here to download our registration form. You can either fax in the sheet to 973-757-6302 or mail it to the New Jersey Ironmen Kids Club, Prudential Center, 165 Mulberry Street, Newark, NJ 07102.

T&T U-17 to face Chelsea youth in US tournament.
By: Shaun Fuentes (TTFF Press).
     
Trinidad and Tobago’s National Under 17 team will head off to the United States on November 3 to take part in a four-team invitational tournament which includes the Mexican National Under 18 team as well as the Youth Team of English Premiership giants Chelsea.

This invitation was put forward to the T&T Football Federation and accepted, being seen as a beneficial opportunity for the local team to get international match practice ahead of the CONCACAF Final round of qualification in Mexico next April leading towards the 2009 FIFA Under 17 World Championship in Nigeria.


The tournament  which is called the  16th Annual Newark International Cup, is being hosted by St Benedict’s Prep and matches will be played at the New Jersey Institute of Technology Lubetkin Field. All matches are expected to be viewed by several international scouts.

T&T will face Chelsea in its opening game on November 5, followed by encounters with St Benedict’s Prep a day later and close off against the Mexicans on November 8.  The final and third place play off  matches will take place on November 9.

At the media launch for the tournament on Monday, on hand promoting the International Cup, besides some of the St. Benedict's players and coach Rick Jacobs, was St. Benedict's alumnus and former United States captain Claudio Reyna.

On Saturday November 8, 2008 coaches and players from all the participating teams, along with members of co-sponsor, the NJ Ironmen, will conduct a free youth soccer clinic at Saint Benedict’s Prep.   

This is the 16th year that Saint Benedict’s Prep has hosted this prestigious international  tournament, which has seen some of the world’s best youth teams travel to Newark, NJ.   Alumni from this tournament play in all the top leagues throughout the world including the English Premiership,  Italy’s Serie A, Spain’s La Liga, Germany’s Bundesliga, Mexico’s Primera and the Unites States’ MLS.

Currently the pool of 23 players in the T&T national squad have been in a strength training program with several of the players also representing their schools in the ongoing League .

“We felt it would be an ideal chance for the players to get some much needed practice and international exposure before the qualification tournament next year,” team head coach Corneal told TTFF Media. “We haven’t played an international match since the game against Brazil’s U17s which was another valuable experience for us but now we are hoping to build on that with this upcoming tournament.”

According to the team manager Christopher Gouveia, the  programme is being conducted by the Physical Training Instructors of the Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force.
 
The players will be involved in four training sessions next week before leaving on Monday 3rd, November for the one-week tournament. The current squad, with Corneal at the helm, will be cut to eighteen players before departing for the US.

[ZANDOLIE]

Well we all know who the forward is likely to be  plus Winchester could handle stories in a crunch.



Did we somehow drop into a alternate universe where a palindrome take over Ollie Camps brain and have him actually doing wuk on behalf of the youths? 

Like the TTFF serious about this youth football business. To progress from the Dallas Cup to this is a real improvement. Niceness

Well we all know who the forward is likely to be  plus Winchester could handle stories in a crunch.
