JFF names CFU squad

THE JAMAICA Football Federation (JFF) has named a 20man squad for games in the Scotia Bank Caribbean Football Union (CFU) Caribbean Cup Round Three.

Jamaica will play against Suriname on Wednesday, October 5 at the Anthony Spaulding Sports Complex in Trench Town and face off against Guyana at the National Stadium in Providence, Guyana, in Group One.

In Group Two are Haiti, French Guiana and St Kitts-Nevis; Group Three – Curacao, Antigua and Barbuda and Puerto Rico; and Group Four – Trinidad and Tobago, Dominican Republic and Martinique.

The Jamaica squad includes 12 overseas-based players and eight local players. Owayne Gordon, formerly of Arnett Gardens and Montego Bay United, and presently at Indy Eleven in the USA, along Dwayne Ambusley, are the only newcomers in the Reggae Boyz squad.

Former national player Theodore Whitmore and Jerome Waite were appointed coach and assistant coach, respectively.

Both coaches were named after veteran coach Carl Brown turned down the job earlier this week.
