Webb appears in federal court
NEW YORK (CMC):Former president of CONCACAF Jeffrey Webb appeared in a New York federal court yesterday in connection with the FIFA bribery scandal that has sent shockwaves through the football world.Webb, who is from the Cayman Islands, is one of seven FIFA officials who were detained in Switzerland last spring when the scandal erupted.The former FIFA vice-president and his attorney left court without speaking to reporters.Webb, 50, has been accused of soliciting a $2-million bribe in exchange for marketing rights for the 2013 Gold Cup tournament.He is the only official to agree to come to the United States, where he pleaded not guilty last month and was released on a $10-million bond.Fourteen men – nine football officials and five marketing executives – were named in the US indictment, including former FIFA vice-president Jack Warner, who is fighting his extradition from Trinidad and Tobago.Webb has been ordered to return to the federal court in Brooklyn on October 9.
“This has placed us in the limelight,” he stated, “People, who normally think of Mocho as a ‘backabush’, unknown place, now see us a place that nurture champions. Nothing is greater,” said Dr Johnson. He added that after watching his school put away the previous six-time champions STETHS 4-2 on penalties in the final, that it dawned on him that the significance of the moment transcends the school. He said the entire community and the parents of the players, teachers and all associated with Lennon are celebrating the history-making endeavour of the team. “The celebration will not end today; this will go on for quite a while, because this is monumental,” reasoned Dr Johnson. In addition, he pointed out the school’s Parent-Teacher Association, the teachers and the board of directors for special praise. “We are now officially part if the big leagues, the elites. We will continue to show how great Lennon High School is, and hopefully, when this is all said and done, we will be crowned daCosta Cup winners also,” he said. HOME OF CHAMPIONS WESTERN BUREAU: ‘Today’s hard work, tomorrow’s success’, is not just a motto for Lennon High School,;it’s also a way of life, and the school’s recent victory in the final of the Ben Francis Cup embodies the full meaning of it all, said Principal Dr Donald Johnson. “Some people classified us as the underdogs at the start of the season. That label has been scratched out. This fine victory to capture the title embodies in exactly the right way what our motto means.” He said the dream of winning a boys’ title, after claiming seven for the girls’ football team over the years, says a lot about preparation, discipline and hard work. The principal was full of praise for coach Merron Gordon and the rest of the coaching staff, describing them as a very special part of the fabric of the school.
The Jamaica Scorpions will attempt to move one step closer to landing their first regional one-day title in six years when they take on defending champions Trinidad and Tobago Red Force in semi-final action at the Coolidge Cricket Ground, formerly The Sticky Wicket Oval, in Antigua today.Set for a 12:30 p.m. start Jamaica time, the match-up will pit against each other two teams that have been experiencing good form in the tournament.Captained for the second time in one-dayers by Nikita Miller, Jamaica have so far registered six wins and two defeats. This has allowed them to finish second in Group B to co-hosts Barbados Pride.Meanwhile, Trinidad and Tobago, who topped Group A ahead of co-hosts Leeward Islands Hurricanes, have a record of seven victories and one loss.SECOND SEMI-FINALThe Pride and the Hurricanes are set to do battle in semi-final two tomorrow at the same venue, starting at the same time.”The team entered the tournament with a purpose and mission, and we are two matches away,” stated Miller. “We are focused and determined going into the semi-finals, and at the end of the day, once we stick to our plan, I am confident we can come out on top.”The Scorpions, coached for the first time at the tournament by Robert Samuels, started poorly by losing their first encounter against minnows Combined Campuses and Colleges Marooners.However, thanks to solid performances from the tournament’s third-highest wicket-taker, Damion Jacobs, and fast bowlers Jerome Taylor and Reynard Leveridge, as well as several of their batsmen, the Scorpions have been able to find form.These batsmen include AndrÈ McCarthy, Chadwick Walton, Devon Thomas, John Campbell, Jermaine Blackwood and American Steven Taylor, whose timely half-centuries have resulted in them posting challenging totals.HIGH ON CONFIDENCEThe performances have also ensured that heading into the semi-finals, the team is high on confidence, given their record of winning six of their last seven matches, including their last five.”In the games that we have batted well, there are persons who have scored 40s and 50s,” assessed Miller.”What I would like in the semis is for these people, who get batting starts to go on and score centuries or big half-centuries, and if that can be achieved, we can’t be beat,” he added.Trinidad, meanwhile, will enter the showdown knowing that they only lost one game, their second against invited team Kent Spitfires of England.Since then, they have gone on to chalk up six successive wins, including completing the double over Leewards.Coached by Gus Logie, the Red Force will look to Ravi Rampaul, Shannon Gabriel and Jamaica-born Sheldon Cottrell to lead their bowling, with recent West Indies call-ups Jason Mohammed and Evin Lewis, along with wicketkeeper and captain, Denesh Ramdin, leading their batting.
