GFF to conduct Trials in Florida, Sept. 24-26
Miami, FL – Concacaf has announced that the 2021 Concacaf Men’s Under-20 Qualifiers draw will now take place on September 17 at 11:00 am ET. The draw was initially planned for yesterday, September 10 but has been rescheduled to a new date following a change in the number of teams participating in the tournament.
The 2021 Concacaf Men’s Under-20 Qualifiers will now include the participation of 19 Concacaf Member Associations (all ranked 17 and below based on the current Concacaf Men’s Under-20 Ranking).
The confirmed teams are (in alphabetical order): Anguilla, Barbados, Belize, Bermuda, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Curacao, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Grenada, Guyana, Montserrat, Nicaragua, Puerto Rico, Saint Lucia, Saint Martin, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Sint Maarten and US Virgin Islands.
The new pots for the draw are as follows (based on the participating teams ranking and listed in ranking order per pot): Pot 1: Dominican Republic, Bermuda, Curacao and Nicaragua. Pot 2: Puerto Rico, Saint Lucia, Grenada and Guyana. Pot 3: Dominica, Cayman Islands, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and Belize. Pot 4: Barbados, Saint Martin, US Virgin Islands and Sint Maarten. Pot 5: Anguilla, Montserrat and British Virgin Islands.
Teams will be placed into Groups A, B, C and D according to the order in which they are drawn, with no more than one team of each pot per group. At the conclusion of the draw, Group A, B and C will be composed of five teams each and Group D of four teams. The tournament is scheduled to be played in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, from November 5-14. The four group winners will advance to the 2022 Concacaf Men’s Under-20 Championship, joining the top 16 ranked teams. Further details regarding the championship stage will be published in due course.
Meanwhile, the Guyana Football Federation has already commenced its quest to arrive at the best possible team by conducting trials in a number of areas, locally. Successful sessoions were held on the weekend of August 30, 2021 at the GFF National Training Centre where over 90 players from eight Regional Member Associations competed for places in the provisional squad.
The GFF will embark on the North American Diaspora talent ID segment as the body seeks to add to the provisional squad.
The Technical Department will conduct the Florida trails from September 24 -26, next in Miramar. In its open letter of invite, the GFF has advised that all attendees must provide evidence of a negative COVID-19 PCT test on arrival. To register interest or to request further details, persons can contact: [email protected].
Leading the Florida initiative would be Men’s National Team Under-20 Head Coach, Wayne ‘Wiggy’ Dover.
