DESPITE Cavalier FC being dethroned as champions of the Wray & Nephew Jamaica Premier League (JPL), Assistant Coach David Laylor says the club remains committed to its philosophy of developing and trusting young players.

Cavalier will begin pre-season for the 2026/2027 season in the coming weeks as they prepare to compete in the 2026 Concacaf Caribbean Cup, having qualified for the competition for an impressive four consecutive seasons.

The 2024 champions open their campaign on August 5 in Group B, where they have been drawn alongside Portmore United, who defeated them in the JPL final, Dominican Republic clubs Cibao FC and Salcedo FC, and the winner of the CFU Club Shield, which Mount Pleasant Football Academy are hoping to win.
