Fray inspires U-17 Girls to CONCACAF World Cup qualification round

Jamaica’s National Under 17 Reggae Girlz beat Trinidad and Tobago 1-0 to advance to the CONCACAF Under 17 Women’s World Cup Qualifying Tournament to be held in February 2016 in Grenada.

This makes the second national women’s  youth team to qualify for the CONCACAF stage of World Cup Qualifiers as the National Under 20 Girlz also qualified for the CONCACAF Under 20 Women’s World Cup Qualifying Tournament to be held in Honduras in December 2015.

Jamaica’s Marlee Fray scored the winning goal for the National Under 17 team. The team will now play for the title of Caribbean Football Union Women’s Under 17 Champion on Sunday before returning home on Monday.

The National Olympic team were beaten by Guyana 1-2 and will therefore not participate in the CONCACAF Olympic Qualifiers.
