The Barbados senior men’s and women’s football teams were slated to be announced late tonight after their last training sessions, before departing the country this Thursday for Suriname. They will play a number of international friendly matches.Barbados Football Association (BFA) President Randy Harris confirmed that the team will play in a tri-nation international competition against Suriname and Guyana and said this was to keep the players match-ready and also in preparation for any upcoming tournaments.“We have not played any kind of domestic competition for nearly two years now and we have got this opportunity to play three international games so that we can gauge and assess the development of the teams that would be playing in competition in another couple of months,” Harris said.The BFA president added: “It was an invitation from Suriname to play in a triangular tournament with Guyana. Then we realised that their women’s team was in training too and therefore we asked if we could get a match or two for the ladies.”
