Concacaf Nations League 2019-2020 31-man Guyana-based Provisional Squad announced; Training kicks off today

The squad, comprising four Goalkeepers, 11 Defenders, 10 Midfielders and six Forwards also
has seven first-timers who will be competing for a chance to earn their debut in the senior national squad.
According to Charles Pollard, the Golden Jaguars Assistant Coach and lead for the Guyana based team preparation; the squad was selected by a technical panel which included Head Coach Michael Johnson: “We’re continuously looking for players with the right combination of technical skill, heart and commitment to represent Guyana. I believe this squad reflects that.
While the majority of the squad is taken from those who were part of the previous training programme, we have brought in some new players who have shown creditable performance in the recently-held tournaments and who have to fight for a place when the short list is made.
One of those players is young Ryan Dowding who performed well during the recently-concluded GFF-KFC U20 Tournament. Careful consideration was made to the squad selection by a technical panel including Head of Recruitment, Faizal Khan; Goalkeeper Coach, Eon De Viera; Fitness Coach, Wilson Toledo; Head Coach, Michael Johnson, Technical Director, Ian Greenwood and me.”
Pollard said the first sessions will prioritize fitness, which will be led by Toledo: “Fitness in the sport, especially during this time, can never be underestimated so while some of the guys have been actively engaged in tournaments, others may not have been so active so the fitness regime will test this to determine their overall readiness and will also point us to areas to focus on.”
Fitness evaluation is scheduled for Saturday. More tournament details as well as the home venue for matches will be announced soonest.
Guyana will play three home and three away matches as follows:
