Soca Princesses off to Guatemala.
T&T Express Reports.

Trinidad and Tobago's Under 17 Women's team will depart for Guatemala City this morning to compete in the CONCACAF final round of qualification for the 2012 FIFA Under 17 Women's World Cup in Azerbaijan. The qualifiers run from May 2- 12 in Guatemala City, Guatemala.

Canada, Panama, Jamaica, Guatemala, United States, Mexico, Bahamas and Trinidad & Tobago are battling for three World Cup spots. T&T open against Mexico on May 3 in Guatemala City, before facing the USA on May 5 and Bahamas on May 7.

The junior Soca Princesses have been going through final preparations for the tournament via a three-match training camp at the Holiday Inn Soccer Complex, Fort Lauderdale, USA.

Trinidad & Tobago travelled to Fort Lauderdale following a two-match series in Panama, where they beat that country's Under 17 women by 3-2 and 1-0 margins. USA-based player Donika Murray was the final player to join the team on Saturday

Coached by Even Pellerud, Trinidad & Tobago held South Florida United 0-0 last Wednesday, beat Plantation Eagles FC 3-0 on Friday, and were due to play Chicago Fire Juniors yesterday evening.

In beating Plantation Eagles, T&T went ahead in the opening minute through Zoe Swift and doubled that lead into the 25th minute through captain Anique Walker. Khadidra Debesette completed the scoring in the 71st minute.

Afterward, Pellerud said he was satisfied with the team's progress in Fort Lauderdale, adding that the warm up games were against strong opponents despite those not being national teams.

T&T played Panama and Canada in its build up to the tournament and Pellerud believes that despite the fact that more international games would have been beneficial, he believes the T&T team is in ready mode.

"We've had a very good camp in Fort Lauderdale. The weather was ideal for our preparations and the field conditions and general facilities were of a very good standard, which is what any national team would need in its preparation for a tournament," Pellerud told TTFF media officer Shaun Fuentes.

"Of course you'd like to play as many international teams but we worked with what we had in front of us and our preparation was designed in the best way possible. We have to face the fact that we are grouped with two of the strongest teams in the confederation and we will need to give everything to stand a chance."

"All our players got some playing time and we are seeing how important these camps in Panama and Fort Lauderdale were. All our performances are not consistently good but a starting XI for the tournament is coming around and we know that we have to peak against Mexico on Thursday," added the Norwegian.

U-17 women win final warm up.
By: Shaun Fuentes (TTFF).
   
Trinidad and Tobago’s Under 17 women’s footballers arrived in Guatemala City on Monday and settled ahead of their opening game of the CONCACAF Final round of the World Cup qualifiers against Mexico on Thursday.

The squad traveled after winning their final warm up match on Sunday, defeating the Chicago Fire’s Junior team 4-0. Both teams were deadlocked 0-0 at half time but T&T came out firing in the second half.

Diarra Simmons netted three goals and Khadisha Debesette added the fourth item with a headed goal.

T&T, coached by Even Pellerud, also completed a 3-0 victory over Plantation Eagles FC on Friday and held South Florida United 0-0 last Wednesday.

In their 3-0 win, T&T went ahead in the opening minute through Zoe Swift and doubled that lead into the 25th minute through captain Anique Walker. Khadidra Debesette completed the scoring in the 71st minute.

T&T had arrived in Fort Lauderdale following a two-game series in Panama against that country’s Under 17 team where it defeated the hosts 3-2 and 1-0.

The Holiday Inn Soccer Complex, venue for the team’s training camp, was used by Senior National Men’s teams in 2005 under Leo Beenhakker and previously under Bertille St Clair. The T&T Olympic Men’s team also lost 1-0 to Canada at that venue a  few weeks back.

Pellerud said he was satisfied with the team’s progress in Fort Lauderdale adding that the warm up games were against strong opponents despite those not being national teams.

“We’ve had a very good camp in Fort Lauderdale. The weather was ideal for our preparations and the field conditions and general facilities were  of a very good standard which is what any national team would need in its preparation for a tournament,” Pellerud told TTFF Media.

T&T played Panama and Canada in its build up to the tournament and Pellerud believes that despite the fact that more international games would have been beneficial, he believes the T&T team is in ready mode.

“Of course you’d like to play as many international teams but we worked with what we had in front of us and our preparation was designed in the best way possible.

“All our players got some playing time and we are seeing how important these camps in Panama and Fort Lauderdale were.

US-based player Donika Murray was the final player to join the team on Saturday

T&T will face Mexico on May 3rd in Guatemala City before facing the USA on May 5 and Bahamas on May 7th.

I really feel some ppl (like yuhself) really don't understand what allyuh asking for...or don't know where yuh come from or what tools you have..

I won't bother try to explain or try to convince no one, but let's say this, "Just Do it" is just a very good sport marketing ploy. The juice u can squeeze from a grape, may not match the quantity or even the quality of the juice squeezed from an Orange..but there are uses for each, given particular applications..Don't worry..the Team is doing well, the girls are doing well
