THE government and the TT Football Association (TTFA) are working together to expand eligibility rules for national footballers, in a move designed to strengthen TT’s chances of qualifying for the 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup.
Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar confirmed on August 28 that she met with TTFA president Kieron Edwards the previous day at the Diplomatic Centre.
She said discussions centred on amending local laws to make it easier for foreign-born players with Trinidadian grandparents to represent TT.
