23-member Lady Jags squad set for Jamaica clash

Guyana’s senior women’s national football team, the Lady Jags, have an all-important clash ahead of them, as they take on Jamaica in the CONCACAF W Qualifiers next Saturday.
On the heels of a 4-0 victory against Antigua and Barbuda last month, the Lady Jags will need a victory over current group leaders Jamaica, in order to keep their CONCACAF Women’s Championships and 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup hopes alive.

The upcoming fixture will see the Lady Jags travelling to “the Land of Wood and Water” to take on hosts, the Reggae Girlz, at the National Stadium in Kingston on Saturday, April 18.

Jamaica currently lead Group B of the Qualifiers with nine points from three wins in as many games. Nicaragua sit second in the group with six points from three games, on account of goal difference. Guyana has a similar six points from three games. Meanwhile, Antigua and Barbuda and Dominica are yet to salvage a point in the group, sitting fourth and fifth respectively.
To progress to the CONCACAF W Championships, the Lady Jags will need a massive win in Kingston. The first-place finishers from each of the six qualifying groups will move on to the CONCACAF Women’s Championships later this year, where they will meet the top-ranked teams in the region, the United States and Canada.
The CONCACAF W Championship will serve as the Confederation’s qualifier for both the FIFA Women’s World Cup Brazil 2027 and the 2028 LA Summer Olympics.
The clash between Guyana and Jamaica is set to kickoff at 20:00h local time on Saturday.
