[November 24, 2021 – Harmon, Guam] In an effort to create a stronger bridge between Guam Football Association’s member clubs and the Guam National Program, GFA Technical Director Sang Hoon Kim has invited each club to nominate top players to train on a consistent basis with the national team.
“This effort has benefits for both the national program and Guam’s club teams,” said Kim, also Head Coach of the Guam Men’s National Team (Matao). “At least four times a week, nominated club players will train consistently at a high level and contribute more to the club during weekend matches when the Budweiser Soccer League resumes in 2022. With more players training at a high level, we will be able to identify and develop a deeper pool of players to select from for the national team. If nominated players from the clubs – especially foreign players with experience from abroad – are not eligible yet to play for Guam, they can still help our national players improve during training sessions by introducing different playing styles and levels of physicality.”
A handful of nominated club players took part in a full 11-a-side training match Tuesday evening at the GFA National Training Center before the National Team training squad takes a break for the Thanksgiving holiday. Kim expects more players to join national team training sessions next week. .....
