player600The Cayman Islands Football Association confirms the venues used for the upcoming CONCACAF Under-15 Developmental Tournament.

The tournament, which is set to be hosted by Cayman from August 13th – 25th, will be played at Ed Bush Field, The Annex and the Truman Bodden Sports Complex.

Twenty-two nations — including Cayman — from across the region will participate in the tournament, an initiative of CONCACAF President Jeffrey Webb with a view towards strengthening the game at the youth levels among all of the Confederation’s members.

“We are proud to host such an impressive number of our member associations for this inaugural under-15 tournament, which will give the Confederation’s younger stars the chance to demonstrate their talents on a larger pan-regional stage,” said President Webb.

“It is our belief that supporting youth football by every possible means is fundamental to the widespread development of our sport across the region and the world. Through this tournament we hope to take an important further step towards assuring substantial opportunity for all of our Confederation’s youth.”

Participating teams in the inaugural under-15 event come from across the Caribbean and Central America, and include Aruba, the Bahamas, Belize, Bermuda, the Cayman Islands, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Martinique, Puerto Rico, St. Kitts, St. Lucia, St. Martin, St. Maarten, St. Vincent, Trinidad & Tobago, and the US Virgin Islands.
