National Senior Team coach Leo Beenhakker described his first day of activities in this country as a “pleasurable and interesting one”.
The Dutchman arrived here on Monday evening and spent most of Tuesday meeting with members of the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation Executive and Technical Advisory Committee while being taken around to some sites including the Hasely Crawford Stadium by Assistant Coach David Nakhid and Assistant managers George Joseph and Joseph “Sam” Phillips.
Beenhakker also met with CONCACAF President Jack Warner, TTFF President Oliver Camps as well as officials of the Professional Football League and team technical staff.
”So far the visits have gone very well but of course this is just a very little part of what I am here for. The big part of my trip to Trinidad and Tobago is still to come,” Beenhakker told TTFF Media as he toured the Hasely Crawford Stadium.
On Wednesday, Beenhakker will continue his meetings and also conduct his first training session at the Hasely Crawford Stadium from 4pm.
The following players, currently home, have been invited for training by the TTFF:
Duarance William, Jan Michael Williams, Keyeno Thomas, Derek King, Anton Pierre, Atiba Charles, Leslie Fitzpatrick, Arnold Dwarika, Conrad Smith, Michael Celestine, Kerwyn Jemmot, Stephen Cruickshank. Lyndon Andrews, Kerry Baptiste, Angus Eve, Densill Theobald, Aurtis Whitley, Jerren Nixon, Odelle Armstrong, Nigel Pierre
