    Good luck to the team.
    Questions - how was the squad picked? Are these the best players available from the schools league? Where are the players from Cedar? Why the lack of diversity?

    How can the BVIFA continue to mismanage the selection of player by picking player who have not trained for a year. The administration should be ashamed.

      The entire BVIFA needs a flush starting with the General Secretary. There are too many incapable people in the midst. The current coach lacks skills and she inot capable of training this age group but she won't let them go. Picking a team 1 week before they travel is ridiculous but yet it continues to happen.

      This group of boys has the skills but needs a proper coach, let's start there.
