3 Jamaicans Included in All-Star U19 team For 2015 Copa Rayados
Three Jamaicans have been named in a 19-member Caribbean Football Union (CFU) All-Star U19 team that will compete in the November 25-29, 2015 Copa Rayados.
The Copa Rayados is a tournament and scouting initiative held in San Antonio, Texas with the aim of being such exemplars of talent that scouts will be drawn to the region, Head Coach Lenny Lake said.
Lake, who is the St. Kitts and Nevis Technical Director, admitted it is difficult to meld players from eight countries into a single, effective unit in an extremely short period, but believes the task is achievable.
“We are all from one region. We have similar cultures and playing styles, and so although the players are coming from various countries, we have done tournaments together, competing against each other, and most of the players, from U15, have been in contact with each other,” Lake also said.
The Jamaican players who will participate in the tournament as a part of the CARIBBEAN FOOTBALL UNION (CFU) U-19 All Star team are: Jahwahni Hinds, Wolmers High; Tajae Brown, Camperdown High and Jabulani Lindsay, Titchfield High.
National Under 17 Coach Andrew Edwards is the Assistant Coach.
