Participation in Caribbean Club Shield shows club can compete regionally – FC Secretary

Daniel Thomas

Fruta Conquerors Secretary Daniel Thomas declared that the CONCACAF Caribbean Club Shield, the confederation’s second tier championship, is very important to the aspirations of the club, as it can illustrate that the entity is capable of contending on the regional stage.

This remark was stated yesterday during an exclusive interview with Stabroek Sport. According to Thomas, “It is important not only for us but for Guyana, what it can demonstrate is that our club is capable of competing at the next level of international football in CONCACAF. This is the CONCACAF Caribbean Club Shield and it’s a competition for amateur ranked clubs, but the organisation of this competition by CONCACAF is very much very professional.  The entire operation gives one the feel of preparing for a professional engagement at the highest level.”
