Is this an appropriate statement for the TD to make and if he did this in the USA would it be taken so lightly. Is he right and what can be done about it.

Problem really is identifying the aggressive predators who prey on the weak, immature and people in early stages of development, that is the real issue.

But is this a sexuality issue or a discipline issue. The sexual preference of the girl would not matter once they behaved.

Like the predator male coaches who are charged with coaching girls? There is a big name coach around my area who was fired from his coaching position at a local high school for sleeping with one of the girls on the team. The girl was "of legal" age (which his wife was quick to point out). Some people jes "lucky".

The lines get blurred somewhat, because he is clearly saying the sexual orientation of some of the girls is having a negative impact on recruitment. One wonders whether this would be true even if the girls in question "behaved" themselves.

There has to be a standard of behaviour, regardless of whether it pertains to overt sexual behaviour, punctuality, dress code, training effort etc. And they need to let their friends know that they have a code of conduct they have to adhere to, otherwise, off the team!

That's the key!

Vin Blaine didn't say anything wrong. But the JFF needs to be clear about the behaviour of all players on national duty. Nothing should become a distraction.

[OJ]

fair point.. I have been around female teams and although one may have suspicions i have never seen it... So its almost ironic that it would be blatant in jamacia the way dem bun fiah pon this and that..

Hey what people waan fi do in them private time is dem business, the issue is the predator style of a few who attack the young and immature, that is the issue, nuff predator in yard female ball, they must be exposed and pushed aside.

[Stonigut]

All predators are evil, taking advantage of the immature and unexposed. This problem has been around a long time in all kind of corners of Jamaican society.
