Confederation of North, Central American and Caribbean Association
Football (Concacaf) as the opening round of the FIFA 2014 World Cup
Qualifying is completed. The three teams now advance to the World Cup

With a number of Brits in my West Indies Real Estate team, we are excited to see our adopted country becoming a producer of great footballers, having long been famous for great baseball players.
