Women’s Football Team Announced
The Bermuda Football Association announced the Women’s Football Team for the preliminary competition CONCACAF Caribbean Zone – Round 1 of Group B, which will be played in the Dominican Republic at the Estadio Panamericano stadium.
Bermuda along with Trinidad & Tobago, Dominica and the Dominican Republic will compete from July 5th – Saturday July 9th. The winner of this group will advance to the final qualification.
For the past two months the Women’s National team has been training at the BFA field under Head Coach, Scott Morton and Youth Director, Devarr Boyles. As many as 25 players turned out for training vying for a spot on the National squad.
These past few Saturdays the squad was put to the test when they played three practice matches; two against BAA 14-16 boys and one featuring our National Youth Girls U-17 team. This provided an opportunity for the coaching staff to see their players scrimmage together against the opposition. The squad was eventually broken down to 18 players for the tournament.
Head Coach Scott Morton believes this is a great opportunity for Women’s football to flourish on the international scene,“This tournament will bring out the best in our Women’s football, we have worked hard during these past few months and therefore our work will show how far we’ve come.”
“This will only be a testament of the hard work, sacrifice and dedication the players have put into their craft. We look forward to making every opportunity go in our favor as we look forward to advancing to the next round,” said Mr Morton.
