The Soca Warriors will close off the first week of their two-week training camp in preparation for their all-important CONCACAF Qualifier against Costa Rica with an exhibition game against a Tobago Football League Representative team at the Dwight Yorke Stadium, tomorrow (Saturday).
The full contingent of Soca Warriors and recently-appointed head coach Russell Latapy and his technical staff with the exception of the Sunderland trio, including their captain and most influential player, Tobago's own Dwight Yorke, Carlos Edwards and Kenwyne Jones arrived in Tobago on Sunday.

Up to press time the trio who played their final game for their Club against Chelsea in the English Premier League on Sunday had not arrived in camp.

The Soca Warriors have been involved in a number of training sessions since at the Dwight Yorke Stadium, the Training Ground and Plymouth recreation ground (PHOTOS) in the first week and the Tobago fans are turning up in their numbers to enjoy the rare treat of seeing the Soca Warriors train live.

The second week of the camp will commence on Sunday with a practice match against Tobago's only professional outfit, Tobago United that is coached by Peter Granville.

He told the Tobago News that he has invited former Soca Warriors standout Cyd Gray, Keon Archie from Stokely Vale and Scarborough Secondary School player Kariq Williams who he is hoping will impress assistant coach Zoran Vranes whom is also the National Under 20 head coach. The practice sessions will continue to Friday June 5.
