Trinidad and Tobago will need to come from behind to advance from their Concacaf preliminary group, after dropping two points today in a 1-1 draw away to Puerto Rico at the Mayaguez Athletics Stadium in Mayaguez. Flanker Joevin Jones got the opening goal in the 55th minute, only for the …

The 2021 Cricket West Indies (CWI) annual general meeting, which includes the election of a president and vice-president, was adjourned today due, remarkably, to the body’s failure to reach a quorum in its virtual meeting. The CWI Articles of Association stipulate that nine representatives of full member bodies must be …

Kraigg Brathwaite’s eighth-ranked West Indies now look more likely to go on to lose the series against seventh-rated Dimuth Karunaratne’s Sri Lanka than to win it. And whether or not they do, some serious questions have to be asked of lead selector Roger Harper and his panel.  And answered, one …

It is now clear that the government was vainglorious in suggesting it had a definite, phased Covid-19 vaccination programme. It used the gift of vaccines, which it so ungraciously accepted from Barbados, to mamaguy us. The extent of the mamaguy was underlined when a television station ran again last week …

A winning team. You could safely describe Clive Lloyd’s late Seventies and early Eighties West Indies team thus. Perhaps the tag is also applicable to Vivian Richards’ 1980/90s team which indisputably had what their skipper called ‘the winning habit’.  A team that won.

“[…] The government can confirm that we have no record of a request being made by the SLFA to have a team train for World Cup qualifiers. Neither the Ministry of Youth Development and Sports or the Office of the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) has received such a request…” The …

“[…] Jaguars are also known as roaring cats, but the only roars in San Cristobal last night came from Trinidad and Tobago head coach Terry Fenwick and captain Khaleem Hyland. “[…] I am sure attacker Levi Garcia could still imagine himself hearing the Englishman’s voice in his hotel room last …

Guyana head coach has blamed early errors for the Golden Jaguars’ 3-0 World Cup qualifying loss to Trinidad and Tobago, rather than anything opposing coach Terry Fenwick cooked up. The Soca Warriors grabbed all three goals in the first half and could have had a fourth, as flanker Joevin Jones missed …

Trinidad and Tobago Football Association (TTFA) interim general secretary Amiel Mohammed announced Fifa’s fourth appointment on its normalisation committee today: Massy Finance and Republic Bank director Trevor Nicholas Gomez. Remarkably, Gomez was actually appointed by Fifa on 15 March 2021 and immediately became an active member of the team. However, …

“[…] We were decent in attack in patches, especially after the introduction of the incisive Judah Garcia, who looked (to me) the most technically gifted and tactically effective attacker. “[…] However, the wing backs barely made it into the opponent’s half [and] there was a permanently available space behind Neveal …
