Golden Jaguars Head Coach, Jamaal Shabazz
“This is a unique preparation. We did not want to take the players away from the club because this Elite League edition has promotion and relegation so we opted to view the players train with the clubs full-time. They play in the league and we scout from them playing and training with the clubs and then we select a final squad,” Shabazz shared.
He further explained that a 23-member team of experienced and young players will represent Guyana at the tournament.
“The good thing is that players playing for their clubs will get a chance to have some games under their belt… which will be better than just training training training. We still have to decide on one or two players. There are still some minor details to work out in terms of selection…we’re going to call together twenty-six players and then out of that twenty-six we’ll choose the final twenty-three.”
The Jaguars qualified for the Concacaf Gold Cup Prelims following a second-place finish in Group C of League B in the 2022–23 Concacaf Nations League. (GFF)
