– Team preps for historic clash against Puerto RicoThe ‘Lady Jags’ are eyeing a spot at next year’s Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro and the country’s Senior National Women’s team quest to Brazil will see them facing Puerto Rico on Wednesday at the Ato Boldon Stadium in Trinidad and Tobago in the final round of the Caribbean Football Union (CFU) Women’s Olympic Qualifier.
Guyana, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, along with Puerto Rico had qualified for the ‘four-team playoff’ by coming out on top of their respective groups.
If the Lady Jags finish within the top three, they will face the likes of USA, Canada, Mexico and two representatives from the Central American region in the CONCACAF Playoffs to see who will head to Brazil.
By virtue of reaching the 2010 CONCACAF Gold Cup in Cancun, the Women’s national team is the country’s most successful.
