The Dominica Football Association (DFA) has announced that the national women’s football team, affectionately known as the Sisserou Girls, will compete against Jamaica in a pivotal CONCACAF Women’s Qualifier. The match is set to take place on Saturday, November 29, at 3 PM at the Daren Sammy Cricket Stadium in Gros Islet, St. Lucia. This encounter represents a significant milestone in Dominica’s ongoing efforts to elevate women’s football within the region and enhance the nation’s presence on the global sports stage. Head Coach Ronnie Gustave expressed immense pride in the team’s dedication, stating, ‘Our women have demonstrated remarkable discipline and resilience. They’ve trained rigorously and are fully prepared to represent Dominica with pride.’ The team recently participated in the WIFA Tournament in St. Vincent, where, despite not securing a medal, they gained invaluable insights into their strengths and areas needing improvement. Coach Gustave emphasized the team’s focus on fundamentals and structure, highlighting their readiness to face Jamaica, a regional powerhouse. He drew inspiration from recent successes in men’s qualifiers, asserting that ‘small islands can achieve big things.’ The squad has been bolstered by the inclusion of several overseas-based players, including Jewel Harve, Trinity Esprit, and Chloe Lecointe, who joined during intensive training sessions. The full roster, featuring a mix of goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders, and forwards, is supported by a dedicated coaching and medical staff. Dominica is grouped with Jamaica, Guyana, Nicaragua, and Antigua and Barbuda in Group B of the qualification campaign. The DFA has urged Dominicans worldwide to rally behind the Sisserou Girls as they strive to make their mark on the international stage.
