Disappointed national team players to represent Jamaica
Ten members of the national squad which failed by two points to reach the CONCACAF World Cup qualifying round are among the 24 players who will represent Jamaica in group A of the CFU Digicel Cup at the National Stadium next week.
The players are: Aaron Lawrence; Damion Stewart; Tyrone Marshall; Jermaine Taylor; Garfield Reid; Fabian Davis; Andy Williams; Jermaine Hue; Khari Stephenson and Damani Ralph.
USA-based Shavar Thomas and Fabian Taylor are also recalled to the squad along with Shawn Sawyers, Robert Scarlett, Fabian Dawkins, Cornell Chin Sue and Damion Williams of Portmore.
Mario Harrison, Lenworth Hyde, Demar Phillips, Luton Shelton, Teofore Bennett, Richard West and Roland Dean are also invited by Technical Director Carl Brown.
Jamaica will first meet St. Martin next Wednesday after Haiti and US Virgin Islands meet in the five o’clock opener. Games will also be contested on Friday and Sunday.

The squad with JFF's changes and some JFF comments:
FOCUS IN YOUTH
'No doubt the direction is youth,' said Lazaroni whose
contract as head coach expired at the team's elimination. 'Thank you JFF, journalists and Carl Brown. He (Brown) has the quality to be in this programme.'
The Brazilian then used one of his country's most distinguished coaches, Mario Zagallo, as an example while predicting that Brown will be back.
'He (Zagallo) was there in 1970, 1974 then many years and he was back in 1998 and 2004. He (Brown) will be back as soon as possible,' said Lazaroni in stuttered English.
Carl Brown did his last duty for the JFF by naming the squad for the upcoming regional Digicel Cup. However, the 26-man squad he named has been revamped to include the core of the Under-20 team as the emphasis on youth begins.
UNDER-20 CHAMPIONSHIP
'If we maintain this core, we could, in the short term, qualify for the Under-20 World Cup Championship from the play-offs in January,' Boxhill noted.
The squad includes only two players that are 30 year-olds Fabian Davis and Tyrone Marshall; five players over 23 in Andy Williams, Jermaine Hue, Robert Scarlett, Teofore Bennett and Damion Stewart; 12 under 23s in Shavar Thomas, Damion Williams, Garfield Reid, Roland Dean, Khari Stephenson, Fabian Dawkins, Demar Phillips, Keith Kelly, Lenworth Hyde Jnr., Shawn Sawyers and Richard McCallum; and seven Under-20s in Jermaine Taylor, Ryan Thompson, Adrian Reid, Akeem Priestly, Richard West, Luton Shelton and Mario Harrison.
'If they do good in the Digicel Cup they would have been better prepared to contest the Gold Cup. In any case it's a win-win situation,' noted Boxhill.
