On September 27, 2022, the SVGFF was contacted by Mr Nicolas Barré Photography Manager of the FIFA Museum in Zurich, requesting permission to highlight the National Under 15 Girls Team who participated in the Jewel of the Caribbean U15 Girls Tournament hosted in Antigua & Barbuda. This recognition will be one among many of the FIFA’s member associations as part of the next special exhibition leading up to the 2022 World Cup events.
Jewel of the Caribbean 15 Invitational Tournament
In light of the travel hiccups of not being able to participate in the Concacaf U15 Tournament in Florida, five (5) MA’s collaborated in hosting a youth tournament from 13th to 21st August 2022, in an aid to encourage, empower, develop and grow the young aspiring females. Participation and order of results were St. Vincent & the Grenadines (Champions), Grenada (2nd), Antigua & Barbuda (3rd), St. Lucia (4th) and Dominica (5th).
