U15 National Boys team leaves for CONCACAF Championship
The Championship sees 40 of the 41-member countries of CONCACAF converging on the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida for a week-long tournament, which sees the Virgin Islands team take on Anguilla, on Sunday August 13, 2017, then Montserrat on Tuesday August 15, 2017 and the Turks and Caicos on Wednesday August 16, 2017.
“The team has been in training for some considerable time,” noted BVIFA President, Andy Bickerton. “The grouping is part of a new initiative to put teams into more evenly matched groups.”
The Captain is Guillaume Parkins and he felt that the build-up has gone well and is feeling confident that the team would do well. He said, “Everything has gone well, we are very disciplined and looking forward to a successful championship.”
The full squad includes: Declan Rose, Alexander Keen, Alejandro Santos, Giovanni Grant, Denvin Jones, Glenford Prentice, Shamsi Dore, Luka Cherwell, Kahlil Farrington, George Rowe, Robert Medway, Miquel Marshall, Marcus Butler, Tyler Forbes, Jalen Prentice, Jake Forbes and Justin Smith.
Second Vice President of the BVIFA, Avanell Morton, who oversees Youth Development Programmes, said “the Coaches have been doing a great job and I hope when these Boys take to the field at the IMG, that they do us proud.”
