The Cayman Islands Football Association has announced the inaugural ‘Cayman Cup’ has a new date and a new focus. The tournament, which was originally set to commence 9th-11th February will now take place 23rd-25th March. The tournament was also set to host both Under-17 and Under-20 national teams from Jamaica, Cuba and the Dominican Republic. However, that has now been condensed solely to the nations Under-20 squads. Tournament Manager Antwan Seymour says the condensed field was better for all involved.

“The U17 has been invited to Martinique for a similar tournament and there group seem to favor that more so we decided to just focus on the U20 group.”

All games will be held at the Truman Bodden Sports Complex. Here is a look at the new fixtures:

23rd March 2018, Ed Bush Playing Field

6:00pm – Jamaica vs Dominican Republic
