Didn't see much of T&T performance in this round but still Congrats on getting the job done in St Lucia

Not sure who we will be playing next in this Caribbean tournament but I expect nothing short of a win and good team football. We have to meet the standards if we want to be serious about WC qualification

I feel sorry for the players and staff after reading about the lack of support from your F.A. As a Canadian supporter, maybe I won't complain as much about our program, as things could always be more challenging in some areas.

Good luck.

The problen is not so much the lack of support from the FA. The problem is the FA inability to get the business entities to assist in football development. We have oil and petrochemical, steel mill and a host of large to medium size companies who make handsome profits doing business in TT. Somewhere along the the line, this new admin. has not garner their support. The verdict is still out.

First match will be played on October 19. Of course the CFU puts out a notice about the new fixtures the night before the tournament was originally set to kick off.
Also, apparently T&T will play St Lucia first and not Barbados.

CFU U-17 Championship postponed to October 19.
By Andrew Gioannetti (Guardian).

The Caribbean Football Union’s (CFU) Under-17 Championship, which was originally scheduled to kick off today, in Haiti, has been delayed at least for a further three weeks.

The T&T Football Association (TTFA) received a notice of a change in dates on Sunday. In its notice, the CFU said the U-17 tournament has been rescheduled to October 17-26, adding, “We (CFU) are still awaiting information from the host regarding accommodation, game time, etc. We will forward all outstanding information including fixtures once we receive all outstanding from the host (Haiti).”

The Trinidad Guardian contacted the CFU via e-mail to query the cause for the delay.

CFU acting general secretary Damien Hughes later responded saying he was unaware of any postponement to the tournament, suggesting that the tournament was always scheduled to play in mid-October.

“The only information that I am aware that has been slow in getting to Participating Member Associations is information from the Host Country related to host hotels, practice fields, etc,” he said.

Up to press time last evening, Concacaf’s website maintained that the final round of qualifiers (the CFU U-17 Championship) were to begin tonight in Haiti, while the CFU website gave no notice as to the original start date nor the rescheduled date of the competition.

Meanwhile, T&T’s U-17 footballers came out of their live-in camp on Sunday after three days. According to team manager, Chistopher Govia, the technical staff will use the opportunity to keep an eye on the national players and their form while they participate in the ongoing Secondary Schools Football League.

The final squad has not yet been named and there is still an opportunity for head coach Shawn Cooper to make changes from the team that spent the weekend in camp. Last weekend’s camp was scheduled to fall a week before the start of the CFU U-17 Championships, but Govia said with the postponement of the competition, there is no guarantee of another live-in camp closer to the actual date of the tournament, due to the ongoing funding issues.

The CFU U-17 tournament serves as qualifiers for the 2015 Concacaf U-17 Championship, which runs from February 27- March 14, in Honduras. Five Caribbean teams will advance to the Concacaf tournament. If the latest fixtures are final, T&T will meet Barbados in the first double-header match on October 19. T&T will face Haiti two days later then St Lucia in the third Group A fixture, on October 23.

Pres midfielder Riley leads national U-17s to Haiti.
T&T Guardian Reports.

A 20-man T&T U-17 team, captained by Presentation College of San Fernando’s Kareem Riley and including five players from recently crowned SSFL Premier Division champion school, Naparima College, will arrive in Haiti tomorrow where the players will challenge the Caribbean Football Union’s (CFU) U-17 Championship starting with another meeting against St Lucia on Sunday.

Just over a month ago, the team, coached by Shawn Cooper topped its qualifying group for the CFU main event in St Lucia, by defeating the host nation (3-2) as well as Grenada and Curacao (both 2-0). The tournament was originally carded to start on September 27 but was postponed for three weeks to accommodate the CFU senior men’s qualifying event.

The final squad was made public yesterday by the T&T Football Association (TTFA) at a media briefing at its office located at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, Port-of-Spain.

Among the players coming off a victorious campaign with Naparima are: Enrique Changiah, Levi Fernandez, Kierron Mason, Shobel Celestin and 14-year-old Isaiah Hudson, one of only two players (John-Paul Rochford the other) born in the year 2000.

Speaking yesterday, Cooper said he was comfortable with the players in his squad: “We have a balanced team which I think is ready for the challenge ahead.

“We had a break since the last tournament in St Lucia and we had the guys going back to play in the Secondary Schools Football League. But we kept the preparations going and we’ve done the best that we can to prepare at this stage. You can do all the preparation possible and still fail on the day if you don’t execute as we’ve seen teams with much more resources than us fail to qualify for World Cups in the past.”

T&T will face St Lucia in the first match on Sunday from 5 pm, then Barbados two days later at the same time. In the final Group A match, T&T will meet the host nation, Haiti, from 7.30pm on Thursday. Group B features Guadeloupe, Martinique, Cuba and Jamaica.

T&T will be seeking to top the group as that feat will assure it, along with the top team in Group B, an automatic spot at February’s Concacaf Under-17 Championship, which will be staged in Honduras. The best second placed finisher from the two groups will also advance to the final round of Concacaf’s World Cup qualifiers directly. At the Concacaf Championship, the four best teams will qualify for the Fifa Under-17 World Cup 2015, in Chile.

Squad

Enrique Changiah, Levi Fernandez, Isaiah Hudson, Kierron Mason, Shobal Celestin (Naparima College), Darnell Hospedales, Shirwin Noel, Kareem Riley, Keston Julien, Nate Brooks (Presentation College), Travell Edwards, Tekay Hoyce (East Mucurapo), Kendell Charles, Dareem Daniel (Trinity East), Sharkell Louison (Moruga Secondary), Jeankeon Alexander (San Juan North), Matthaeus Grander (St Anthony’s College), John-Paul Rochford (Queen’s Royal College), John-Michael Herrera (Fatima College), Anthony Herbert (St Benedict’s)
