As the anticipation builds for Bermuda's upcoming World Cup Qualifiers, a look at the selected squad reveals a blend of familiar faces plying their trade both at home and abroad.
Many of the players included will be well-known to Bermudian football fans, having featured regularly in our coverage.
In the goalkeeping department, Coleridge Fubler earned his call-up after an outstanding season with Binfield FC in England.
Harry Twite, despite missing some matches for Loughborough University, returns to bolster the options at the back. The squad also includes local talent in Julian Carpenter of Paget Lions and Jorj Dublin from Devonshire Colts.
The defensive ranks see the inclusion of Deniche Hill, who was recently released from Leicester City FC's Under-21 setup, adding further quality to the backline.
The midfield boasts a mix of experience and attacking prowess. Rahzir Jones, Fubler's teammate at Binfield FC, earns his place after a free-scoring season. He is joined by veteran Willie Clemons, fresh from his recent signing with English side Leiston FC, and Roger Lee, who continues to feature for AFC Quorn.
Up front, Kole Hall, who has consistently found the net for Chorley FC in England, veteran Zeiko Lewis, currently without a club, brings his experience to the forward options, alongside Djair Parfitt, who is establishing himself in Finland with FC Haka. Enrique Russell of local side PHC Zebras, who finished joint fifth in the island's leading goalscorer charts, is the sole local frontline player selected in the squad.
This selection hints at a squad blending overseas experience with local talent as Bermuda prepares for the challenges of the World Cup Qualifiers.
