The GFF-Blue Water Shipping U15 Girls Development League was launched in
Georgetown in May 2022 and is a 5 years partnership between the GFF and Blue Water Shipping.
The aim of the league is to increase the number of young girls playing football, identify new talent, raise the profile of female football and provide coaches with more hours to work with young female footballers. The league is being played as a national school competition across all school districts and is supported by the Ministry of Education.
The winning team’s coach Latoya Carry said her team has been practicing daily. “I’m elated the girls won,” Carry added.
Acting Technical Director Bryan Joseph said he is satisfied with the rollout of the league in both Georgetown and Linden.
“I’m very satisfied with the level of participation and commitment from schools. This league exposes girls to the fundamentals of football while having fun on the pitch. We came here today and saw a very exciting game,” Joseph added.
GFF President Wayne Forde and the Council are committed to elevating women’s football through the identification of new talent and creation of strategic developmental programmes, including the Blue Water U15 League.
Matches in Linden were postponed due to inclement weather.
