– Boys’ U-15 Championship in Florida
– Golden Jaguars to kick-off campaign against St Kitts and Nevis on Monday

TEAM Guyana arrived yesterday in Florida where they will participate in the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) Under-15 Championship, set to be the largest CONCACAF tournament ever, including 39 Member Associations and over 700 youth players from across the Confederation.
The developmental tournament which will take place from August 13-19 and features 81 total matches, will be played entirely at the world-renowned IMG Academy campus in Bradenton, Florida.

Guyana will open their Group F campaign against St Kitts and Nevis on Monday from 11:00 hours, and will play Suriname on Tuesday, followed by their final group match against St Lucia on Thursday.
To ensure sporting balance and fully leverage this unique development opportunity for the full contingent of young CONCACAF players, participating associations will be divided into division play in which all 39 teams are guaranteed a maximum amount of competitive matches throughout the week.

The structure includes three separate divisions, with seeding based on each MA’s performance over the last three editions of the CONCACAF Under-17 Men’s Championship, as well as qualifying for that event. Within each division, the participating teams have been divided into groups of four teams (with one group of three) for round-robin play.
