Intense Training For U-17 Players Ahead Of Concacaf Qualifiers
On August 30, the 2022 Concacaf Men’s Under-17 Championship Qualifiers will kick off in
which 22 teams will be hoping to land one of the four coveted places in the 2023 Concacaf
Men’s Under-17 Championship. St. Kitts and Nevis is one of those teams and preparations began
in earnest over a month ago. Coach of the team is the experienced and battle-tested Alexis
Morris, who has a good track record working with young players. On Thursday at the football
field in Half Way Tree, Coach Morris spoke about the characteristics of the players a part of his
squad preparing for the Concacaf Championship qualifiers, to be played in the Dominican
Republic. “The guys are together…you could see that they are very jovial, they tend to joke a
lot…but at times you need that as part of a group. They are youngsters and that is something we
don’t try to get out of them but when it’s come to being serious we ask them to be serious,” he
said.
