The squad is highlighted by the addition of two forwards who earned Best XI honors at the finals of last month’s Caribbean qualifying tournament for the 2017 CONCACAF Under-17 Championship. Jamaica will open a training camp Sunday at the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) Technical Centre at the University of the West Indies.

Both teams are preparing for the next CONCACAF Under-17 Championship, which is scheduled to be played in Panama from April 21-May 7, 2017.
