Final preparations begin, 47 players training in Guyana and Canada
Final preparations have begun in earnest in Guyana and Canada as Coach Ivan Joseph and his staff prepare for the 2020 Concacaf Women’s Under-20 Championship set to take place in the Dominican Republic from February 22nd.
Guyana will kick off its quest for glory against Nicaragua on February 23rd and is aiming to field its strongest team at this level ever for these encounters. Assistant Coach Akilah Castello has been conducting training sessions for the Guyana based players, while Head Coach Ivan Joseph conducts training sessions in Toronto, Canada for all of the internationally based players.
The competition for the final squad is expected to be very competitive as noted by Head Coach Joseph, “We have a very talented pool of players to choose from, and that will make our decision very difficult. However at the end of the day my primary responsibility is to always select the best possible squad from all players available to me for the final team.”
The final squad and alternates, which would be announced in early February, will be selected from the list of eligible players below who have been working hard to impress the coaching staff.
