Already into their second session since the squad commenced encampment on Friday evening, Nedd pointed out that among other areas, he has managed to introduce both offensive and defensive systems to the squad, and the reception and application of these systems by the players shows promise.

He also noted that because all the players basically play at similar levels, the selection of the final team to travel will pose some challenge to the selectors.

The final team is expected to be selected today at the last session before breaking camp. The entore team is expected to meet again for encampment on the weekend of September 18 – 20 before departing on September 26th for the Senior South American Championship in Maceo, Brazil.
