U-15

THE DECISION taken by the TT Football Association (TTFA) normalisation committee to deny the national Under-14 team a chance to compete in the Caribbean Football Union’s (CFU) Under-14 (Boys & Girls) tournament will put a further stranglehold on the nation’s youth development.

Trinidad and Tobago Boys National Under-15 Team captain and midfielder Jaheim ‘Jah Jah’ Marshall is recovering at Mt Hope General Hospital, after fainting on Sunday during the pre-match warm-up before a QPCC Cup Tournament fixture.

T&T will not be fielding teams at the Under-14 Caribbean Football Union (CFU) Boys and Girls Tournaments in the Dominican Republic later this week due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

NATIONAL Under-15 footballers, Isaiah “Messi” Thompson, Molik Khan and Ja-Shawn Thomas have been selected by Canadian/Swedish sports management corporation – Lank Football Group – to join an all-star team which will participate in the 2019 Golden Cup in Barcelona, Spain.

Stuart Charles-Fevrier, the former national youth and senior national team assistant coach, has been asked to state his current employment status if a claim for monies owed to him for a breach of contract by the T&T Football Association (TTFA), is to be processed.

At­tor­ney Pe­ter Tay­lor threw his un­equiv­o­cal sup­port for Un­der-15 coach Stu­art Charles-Fevri­er, “to re­main as his lo­cal choice to get us there.”

The following dates have been set for Screening Sessions for selection to the Boys National Pool of Under 14 and Under 16 players for the Northern and Southern Football Associations.
