CONCACAF Girl’s U-15 Football
Guyana commenced their League C campaign of the CONCACAF Girl’s U-15 Championship with a draw against Anguilla yesterday at the Guillermo Prospero Trinidad Stadium in Oranjestad, Aruba.
The Guyanese, whose starting XI comprised Jasmine Ross, Ella Yhip, Kimora Edwards, Kuleni Springer, Ayah Stewart, Aliyah John, Ellie Biffin, Sydney Glean, Allia Henry, Tanya Devair, and Erin Peneux, were unable to penetrate the backline for the Anguillans as the contest ended in a scoreless stalemate.
Guyana will resume their campaign today against St. Vincent and the Grenadines. They will then oppose Guadeloupe tomorrow before ending their group campaign against the hosts on Friday.
According to a CONCACAF release, “All three leagues will include a group stage and a direct elimination knockout stage, and each will crown its champion. The number of teams per league will be determined based on the Concacaf Women’s U-17 Rankings of March 2024 and the final number of participants.”
Guyana competed in League B of the 2022 edition, which was staged in Tampa Bay, Florida, USA. The Guyanese, who competed in the event with only 14 players due to travel issues, ended with a record of two losses [1-3 Cayman Islands, Nicaragua] and a draw [2-2 Turks and Caicos].
