New National Senior Men’s Football Coach
National Senior Men’s Football Coach Keith Tucker has tendered his resignation to the Bermuda Football Association, effective immediately for personal reasons.
From the fall of 2007, Keith has been in charge of the Senior Team as the Head coach. During his time as coach he advanced the team to the next stage of the World Cup qualifier, when they advanced past the Cayman Islands. The (BFA) Family of football would like to thank Coach Tucker for his sincere dedication with the team and wish him well.
Moving forward, I have appointed Kenny Thompson as Head coach until the end of the Digicel Tournament which takes place in August of 2008. He will announce his staff in due course.
