Former Trinidad and Tobago men’s football team coach Angus Eve has now been appointed as the coach of TT’s women’s team, weeks away from the start of the 2025/26 Concacaf W Qualifiers – the qualifying competition for the 2026 Concacaf W Championship and the 2027 Fifa Women’s World Cup.
Eve’s appointment was confirmed by TT Football Association (TTFA) officials on September 30. However, no official release or announcement was disseminated up to press time. Contacted for comment on the appointment, Eve said questions should be directed to the TTFA.
Eve will be joined in the coaching staff by another former national player in Densill Theobald, who will serve as one of the assistant coaches. Theobald, who’s also the head coach of the men’s national under-15 team, led Defence Force to the TT Premier Football League double in the 2024/25 season on the back of an unbeaten campaign. He surprisingly resigned from the Defence Force post in July.
Not only does this mark a return for Eve to the national setup, but this season, he also returned to the helm of Naparima College with some vigour in the 2025 Secondary Schools Football League season, leading them to four wins in their first four games in the premier division.
It’s a return to national coaching duty for Eve after the TTFA decided his services as head coach of the men’s team were no longer required in July last year. The former national standout midfielder was first appointed on an interim basis as the men’s national team coach prior to the 2021 Concacaf Gold Cup prelims. In the first game of the 2021 Gold Cup, Eve’s charges pulled off a hard-fought goalless draw with Concacaf giants Mexico. And although TT got two points in group play and were knocked out at the group phase of that Gold Cup, Eve was subsequently hired on a permanent basis by the Fifa-appointed Normalisation Committee, which handled the TTFA’s affairs at the time.
In August 2023, Eve’s tenure as the men’s team head coach was extended from September 2023 to March 2024, with another extension coming at the start of 2024. The latter extension was expected to span the duration of the TT men’s team’s Fifa 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign. However, on July 31, 2024, the TTFA announced it was parting ways with Eve after the men’s team got four points from their first two matches in the second round of World Cup qualifying. Dwight Yorke was subsequently hired as the coach of the men’s team on November 1, 2024.
Having coached Club Sando to the TT Women’s League Football (WoLF) title in July, Eve and his staff must now get down to work in short order as the Concacaf W Qualifiers are scheduled to commence in November with TT playing their first game away to Barbados. Along with Barbados, TT are placed in group F with El Salvador and Honduras. TT’s second game will be away to El Salvador in March 2026, with their last group match being a home clash with Honduras in April 2026. At the conclusion of the Concacaf W Qualifiers group stage, the six group winners will advance to join the top-seeded teams US and Canada for the Concacaf W Championship, which will be played in November 2026 via an eight-team knockout format.
At the Concacaf W Championship, the four quarterfinal winners will book their spots in the 2027 World Cup, while the four losing quarterfinalists will contest a pair of play-in matches, which will see the two winning teams battling for a spot in an intercontinental playoff.
The TT women’s team programme has been dormant for an extended period after the contract expiration of former coach Richard Hood at the end of June 2024. In July 2025, TTFA president Kieron Edwards said Hood, Ross Russell and veteran Serbian coach Zoran Vranes were among 20-plus candidates vying for the post of TT’s women’s team coach.
Attempts to reach Edwards, first vice-president Colin Murray and third vice-president Jameson Rigues for comment on the hiring of the new women’s team coach all proved futile.
