Video: Gold Cup Team Member Quinaceo Hunt
Being selected for Bermuda’s Gold Cup team at only 19-years-old is no easy task, and Quinaceo Hunt said he is honoured to be the youngest member of our team, to play amongst the pros and represent the country.
Mr Hunt — one of three goalkeepers on our team — told Bernews, “I feel accomplished being the youngest to be picked from my country, to play amongst the pros that are in the team and everyone else,” adding that it it is a great learning experience for him and he plans to learn all he can.
Speaking on the young keeper, Bermuda goalkeeper coach John Moreira recently told Bernews, “I saw some good traits in him. He’s young, he’s 19; I think being around these other two more experienced goalkeepers is going to help him in his development.
“Being involved in this environment, this big cup that we’re going to be in right now with the Gold Cup, I think being in this environment is going to help him with different areas of his game.”
Bermuda’s team includes Nahki Wells, Dante Leverock, Jonte Smith, Reggie Lambe, Dale Eve, Oliver Jalen Harvey, Calon Minors, Roger Lee, Kacy Milan Butterfield, Jaylon Bather, Lejaun Simmons, Donte Brangman, Chikosi Basden, Zeiko Lewis, Willie Clemons, Jahquil Hill, Osagi Bascome, Cecoy Robinson, Justin Donawa, Wendell Tre Ming, Liam Evans, Marco Warren, and Quinaceo Hunt.
