In 2008 the highlight of the Youth Development Program was the preparation and participation of our U-17 and U-20 National teams in FIFA Competitions.

U-17 National Team

This program was a follow up to the U-16 which was held here in Belize in 2007. The team trained from August - November. This team was placed in the Belmopan Football Association 1St Division Competition and did very well, up until its departure for Panama the team was winning all its games.

The U-17 National Team traveled to Panama for the elimination series with Panama and Honduras. This was held in Penonome, Panama.

This team was coached by Mr. Kent Gabourel, advisors Mr. Renan Couoh and Physical Trainer, Mr. Luis Cabrera.

It was an interesting trip as most of our players had not been on a plane before: this in itself was an excitement. The visit to the Panama Canal was and will always be memorable in the eyes of these players. They not only played football, but they also studied history, geography and social studies, thanks to the National Team Development Program.
