Reigning champions Jamaica and 2008 runners-up Martinique will enter the Caribbean Cup at the third round.
The Caribbean Football Union announced on Wednesday that the Caribbean Cup would begin on August 18 in Antigua and Puerto Rico.
But the Reggae Boyz and the Martiniquans can sit back, relax and size-up their competition until the third round of matches begin on November 19 in Martinique.
They will head the two groups of four teams that will contest matches at Fort-de-France and Riviere-Pilote, and provide four semi-finalists that will be the Caribbean representatives to next year's CONCACAF Gold Cup.
First round
In the first round, Antigua & Barbuda, Barbados, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic will host four groups of four teams with the group winners and two best runners-up advancing to a second round.
Those six teams will join second-round hosts Guyana, Grenada, and Guadeloupe, as well as seeded sides Netherlands Antilles, eight-time champion Trinidad & Tobago, and Haiti in three groups of four, from which the winners and runners-up will qualify for a final group stage.
In fact, I agree that if we can get placed into Group A in July during the World Cup would suit us well. We would have the DPL, Norwegian, Hungarian and u21 players available for selection.

Lincoln, no need to undermine any opponent . Do you realized matinique won the event in jamaica 1993 , and jamaica is in one of the two stronger groups . They are expected to reach the semis and have a good shot to win the whole damn thing ,confidence is good but lets not be over confidence.

put me on your buddy list I will be more than happy to do the same .
USA/MLS 1. Omar Cummings- F 2. Ryan Thompson - F 3. Shavar Thomas - DF 4. Donavon Ricketts - GK 5. Shaun Francis- DF 6. Lovell Palmer- MF 7. Dane Richards - MF/F 8. Khari Stephenson- MF 9. Obrien White - F
add: Anthony Wallace - DF (can't see him getting called up for US anytime soon) and still only 21 Andy Williams - I can see him maybe coming out of retirement for this, if tappa makes it clear he really wants him... still, probably not happening.
