ST GEORGE’S, Grenada, June
29, 2011 – The Grenada
Football Association (GFA) has called up four players from the 2011 Gold Cup to
join the training squad of the National Under-23 Team.
Goalkeeper Shemel Louison, midfielder Moron Phillip, striker Clive
Murray and defender David Cyrus are among the 22 players announced by the GFA
on Tuesday.
The other players called up are Nicko Williams,
Danelle Brathwaite, Daryl Jeffrey, Irvine Smith, Shevon Sampson, Raymond
Alleyne, Rickel Augustine, Kimo Sampson, Kevon Edwards, Josh Charles, Alec
Jones, Kade Wellington, Oswald Phillips, Daniel Toussaint, Carl Raeburn, Lydon
Lewis, Jason Belfon, Rondel Bertrand.
Louison was the
custodian in all three of Grenada’s 2011 Gold Cup games and despite conceding
15 goals he was praised for his determination and outstanding saves. Phillip
played the full 90 minutes in Grenada’s final game against Guatemala, Murray
scored Grenada’s first and only goal (against Honduras) in its two appearances
in Gold Cup while the UK-based Cyrus, who played against Jamaica and a second
half substitute against Guatemala, is considered a quality defender that could
create problems for his opponents in his age group.
The team, which is preparing for Group B of the Caribbean Olympic
Qualifying round, will have a training session at the National Stadium on
Wednesday. Grenada is grouped along with Curacao, Trinidad and Tobago and host
Dominica for the July 20-24 qualifiers.
Alister De Bellotte has been named coach with
Carlyle Fraser as assistant.
