Senior

NATIONAL footballer Victoria Swift says she is trusting in God to have a successful season as she begins a new chapter of her career with Mexican premier-division club Leon.

Forty-nine persons have applied to fill four positions on the coaching staff of the T&T Senior Women's Team. The applications are before a Selection Committee that comprises Technical Director Dion La Foucade, head coach James Thomas of Wales, Jinelle James, the Director of Women's Football and Trevor Gomes of the Normalisation Committee and Amiel Mohammed, the acting General Secretary of the T&T Football Association (T&TFA).

A sell-out by the Selection Committee of Jinelle James- Director of Women's Football, Dion La Foucade- Technical Director, James Thomas- National Women's Team coach and Richard Chinapoo- a former national player, is how some enraged former players and current local coaches have described the announcement of Welshman Charlie Mitchell as the new assistant coach to the T&T women's team.

Invitations to select the Technical Staff of the T&T Women's team are out. The positions will all be filled by local personnel.

THE T&T Football Association (TTFA) has appointed its senior women’s national team staff which will work alongside head coach James Thomas.

Recently appointed women’s senior team coach, Welshman James Thomas is in T&T to officially take up duty.

There are concerns that an agreement by the FIFA-appointed Normalisation Committee to select an all-local staff to support coach Welshman James Thomas and the T&T Senior Women's team, will not be upheld.

James Thomas, the newly appointed Trinidad and Tobago women’s national team head coach, is trying to make his way to T&T as soon as possible despite difficulty of travel. The Welshman said, however, that though he is still on the other side of the Atlantic, the work has begun.
