Jamaica’s Reggae Boyz, who are in the Cayman Islands for a one-week camp ahead of the Gold Cup in the United States, will play the first of two warm up games tomorrow evening.
The Jamaicans, now taking orders from new head coach Theodore Whitmore, will play a Cayman Islands All Star team, beginning at 7 p.m. The game will take place at the TE MC Field Sports Centre.
The Reggae Boyz will then face the Cayman Islands national team on Sunday at the Truman Bodden Sports Complex.
The squad is without captain Ricardo Gardner, who is recovering from an injury and defensive stalwart Ian Goodison, who is unable to travel because of a passport issue.
The 19-member squad in the Cayman Islands includes overseas-based players Ricardo Fuller, Luton Shelton, Jermaine Johnson, Damion Stewart, Rafe Wolfe, Claude Davis and Jason Morrison.
