Give Support To U-17

Oct 15, 2009, 7:18 AM

Every support and prayers should be offered to our gallant U-17 team that has always made the country proud. The team is currently in the UK undergoing intensive training in preparation for the forthcoming U-17 World Cup finals to be played in Nigeria.

The two time Africa U-17 champions started the UK training camp, with two heavy defeats to America U-17 team that is currently in the United Kingdom for their final preparation for the U-17 World Cup.

Considering the team's recent two impressive wins in a row,  if the necessary support and prayers is forthcoming,  they would no doubt make an impact in their bid to continue raising the Gambian flag to higher heights.

Reports reaching Pointsport's desk from the FA has it that the U-17 has succeeded in recovering from their two disappointing starts to the UK training camp by beating Charlton Academy 5 to 1.

Tarik Siagy and his boys are expected back on Friday the 16th before proceeding to final proper in Nigeria.

All they need now is our support and prayers.
