THESE GAMES ARE NEEDED - BURRELL
ALTHOUGH Reds winger Jamal Campbell-Ryce could face a packed June with Jamaica, the games are needed if the Reggae Boyz are to make an impact on international football again.
President of the Jamaica Football Federation Captain Horace Burrell said: "Not being able to play the number of games we would have liked prior to the World Cup qualifiers, we decided to play as many as we could get on short notice. One has to remember all so that we have a large contingent of players, most of them are overseas-based, and the coach will now have a good opportunity to see the players at work as a team, so these three games will ensure he (technical director, Brazilian Rene Simoes) and his team get a chance to pick the best eleven for the World Cup qualifiers.
"Most of our overseas-based players will be available for selection as by then the English leagues will be on a break.
"I don't see it as a major risk in terms of potential injuries as there are several players to be tried in different positions and this will give us the ideal opportunity to select the best".
