Just going through some of the old posts and saw we missed this one back in May. From Caribbean Net News:

"Digicel has renewed its support of the Haiti Football Federation in a multimillion dollar deal over the next four years. In addition, Digicel also donated vital office supplies and equipment to the Federation whose building was destroyed in the earthquake on January 12."

Haiti Women's Soccer was created with the purpose of providing information and fund raising to assist the women of Haiti's national soccer teams and is managed by the past head coach of the Haiti Women's National Soccer Team and former World Cup player,  Gaspard D'Alexis.

You've got to see this powerful ESPN video about the Haiti Women's U17 team and their quest to play in the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup. You'll get a real feeling what it's like to be on the team and the power that soccer has on motivating the girls even after the devastating January 2010 earthquake.

Surrounded by the rubble of thousands of tons of concrete and with a loss of parents, siblings, friends and coaches, the girls decide to keep playing to show the world their strength and determination.

The Haitian National Women´s Soccer Team played Tuesday May 4th its toughest opponent yet, the Dominican Republic U17 Boys National Team. The Haitian´s coaching staff wanted to challenge the women national team against a stronger, faster, quicker and more skill opponent. Indeed the boys side was all that. So, the game was very balance for most of the time. However after just a few minutes into the game, it was obvious that only one player from the boys side was causing most of the trouble to the Women defense. At barely 5 feet tall and lightning quick, he wore number 17 and played center forward.

Regardless, It was the women side who took the lead on a goal from Beaussicot after 15 minutes of play on a nice header. But 5 minutes later, the #17 of the Dominican Rep national team U17 boys equalized on a one on one against  Haiti´s keeper. The first half score was 2-1 in favor of Haiti because just before the pause, Bellevue restored the lead on a pass from Hilaire. In the second half, although the #17 from the boys side scored again to even the score at 2-2, Haiti was the dominante team on the field with a superior fitness and team display. Therefore, after Batard scored the go ahead and winning goal on a solo effort, Haiti could have scored more goals…

Final Haiti National Women´s Soccer Team 3-2 over the Dominican Republic National U17 boys team.

Haiti next game will be against Antigua and Barbuda in Trinidad.

Samedi après-midi, l’équipe nationale Senior Femmes a joué son deuxième  match hors concours  sous la gouverne de l’entraîneur en chef Gaspard Dalexis. Le match a eu lieu au Stade principal de San Cristobal, contre l’équipe nationale U17 filles de la République Dominicaine. Il y a eu probablement au moins cinq cent spectateurs prèsents mais plus de la moitié était venue surtout pour pour participer à une messe qui fut célébrée dans le stade, en même temps que le match. Sous l'inspiration de la musique gospelle venant des estrades, l’équipe nationale Senior Femmes a contrôlé le jeu dès le coup de sifflet, en imposant sur les jeunes Dominicaines un jeu de passes rapides et simples que l'entraîneur a appelé le nouveau style Haïtien de soccer, « Partager vous Rend Meilleur » La balle a été certainement partagé parmi les joueuses Haïtiennes et les jeunes Dominicaines ont passé la majeure partie du match à courir après le ballon partout sur le terrain. Huit differentes joueuses ont marquè les neufs buts de la sèlection fèminine senior et seize passes ont ètè fournies pour crèer ces buts… On devrait applaudir les jeunes de l’èquipe nationale U17 filles de la Rèpublique Dominicaine pour un effort courageux puisqu’elles ont bataillè fort  et n'ont jamais renoncé.

Here are some photos from the May 2010 training camp.
