Bridgetown, Barbados – The Barbados Football Association (BFA) has today announced the National Senior Men’s Squad and their Management Team for the upcoming Concacaf Nations League games, set to be held next month at the BFA Technical Centre in Wildey.
Head Coach Kent Hall said this current window of play has seen his squad selection focus on using more locally based players, emphasizing the Tridents are excited to play in front of a home crowd again.
“We’re excited to play at home. We got great support when we played against Haiti in June and we’re asking the home crowd to bring that same positive energy for these two matches,” he said. “We haven’t had a positive result at home for a little while, and we’re going to do our best to deliver a performance that entertains, and a result that Bajans can be proud of.
We’ve put ourselves in a strong position as it relates to our main objective for this competition – which is to top the Group and get promoted back to League B – but we know that the job isn’t complete yet. USVI and Bahamas will be coming here to fight for the points, so we have to be focused and disciplined in our approach and make sure that we’re prepared to outwork them in every minute of both matches.”
Team Barbados’ first match will be against the U.S. Virgin Islands on Wednesday 9th October, followed by the Bahamas on Tuesday 15th October, both at 8pm.
