A Trinidad and Tobago Senior Women’s team left these shores for London on Tuesday evening for a three-game training camp.
The team is led by coach Marlon Charles with technical director Anton Corneal also assisting with the preparations of the team ahead of World Cup qualifiers for the 2015 Women’s World Cup in Canada.
During their eight-day stay, T&T will play three games, beginning tomorrow (Thursday) against Queen’s Park Rangers Women’s Team, Reading FC Women’s on Friday and Tottenham Hotspur Women’s team on Sunday.
“It’s an excellent opportunity for the ladies to get some much needed match practice and exposure to international conditions,” Corneal said.
“We’ve been working with these players for some time now with the intentions of getting the team ready for the start of the qualifiers next year. Matches against some of these English clubs will go a long way in our development and readiness for international competition.”
The Ministry of Sport has funded the team’s trip to the United Kingdom.
