The Guyana Football Federation (GFF) is proud to announce the departure of the Under-17 Boys and Girls national teams for Suriname to compete in four critical international matches each. These games are part of a bilateral agreement with the Suriname Football Association, aimed at fostering competitive youth development.
This initiative underscores the federation’s dedication to building a solid foundation for Guyana’s football future. The teams feature a diverse representation of players, including heavy indigenous participation and talent from across all administrative regions of the country, as well as some international players.
The squads showcase young athletes from various clubs and academies across Guyana, reflecting the rich talent pool nurtured through local and regional efforts.
This marks the second year of the partnership between the GFF and the Suriname Football Federation, building on its 2023 inception. The collaboration not only promotes regional cooperation but also provides a vital platform for young athletes to gain international experience. These matches are the first phase of this year’s initiative, with Suriname set to visit Guyana for a series of return games in December.
GFF President Wayne Forde emphasized the significance of this partnership. “Youth teams are the backbone of our football aspirations. These matches allow us to gauge the progress of our players and prepare them for upcoming international challenges. Their dedication to rigorous preparation showcases their determination to make Guyana proud,” Forde stated.
Both teams are also preparing for pivotal CONCACAF qualifiers for the FIFA U-17 World Cup, scheduled for early 2025. With these matches, the young athletes aim to solidify their readiness and further their development as ambassadors of Guyanese football.
The diverse representation in these squads highlights the GFF’s commitment to inclusivity and national development. The federation continues to integrate players from the hinterland regions and urban centers alike, ensuring equal opportunities for all.
