Under 16 Barbados

Could not start the AFNA qualifiers without congratulating Jamaica on winning the Jean Pierre CNA under 16 tournament in Barbados.

Easily the weakest Jamaica under 16 team I have seen in a long while (no giants nor overly athletic looking, could pass for seniors girls) it tells us how far the rest of the Caribbean have to go to catch up to Jamaica not just on skills but on pure guts and determination.

Photographer Grantley Sealy has kindly shared his photos from the tournament with me which will be placed on this site in an album at the end of the month so look out for it. For prosterity, The final standing were:
1st Jamaica
2nd Barbados
3rd Trinidad and Tobago
4th St. Lucia
5th St. Vincent and the Grenadines
6th Grenada
7th Dominica

In the Group B section Bermuda demonstrated some impressive skills to place 1st, Guyana who played in the top group last year were second, St. Kitts 3rd and the Cayman Island 4th.
