Bermuda coach Jamie Barnwell has named his 29-man squad for this week’s Caribbean Cup fixture against Guadeloupe in the Rugby Americas North Championship Final at the National Sports Center on Saturday September 21st.
Barnwell has selected an experienced team to represent Bermuda.
Captained by Aldo Campbell and Peter Dunkerley, Bermuda will be supported in the forwards by Dustin Archibald, Darren Richardson, Conor McGlynn, Thomas Greenslade, Jamie Baum, Bennet Gibson, Ben Cook, Tashon DeSilva, Mikey Williams, Ben Green, Tadhg O’Shaughnessy and Henry Johnson.
The team will benefit from the return of Brynley Toms, who has been playing at a professional level with Cardiff in Wales.
Dan Cole, Paul Kelley, Tom Healey, Stephan Smit, Mikle Dill, Conor McGowan, Alex Brown, Scott Clarke, Ja’kee Simons, Antonio Perinchief-Leader, Ryan Murray, Mike Kelly and former Bermuda National Football team goalkeeper Nigel Burgess will round out the back line with the addition of Padraic O’Shaughnessy, who played with Maasstricht Maraboes Rugby club in Holland this past year.
Jamie Barnwell said, “It’s important that everything is as normal and natural as possible in these big games. Nothing changes. I trust all of the players implicitly.
They know how to operate. They won’t let the team down.”
