The Bahamas Men’s National Beach Soccer Team made a special visit to DW Davis on Friday, May 5th, to inspire and engage with students during their Jubilee Assembly. Several team members, including Jaime Thompson, Lesly St. Fleur, Daron Beneby, Jean Francois, Torin Ferguson, and team manager Julian Thompson were in attendance.
Jaime Thompson emphasized the importance of education while sharing his personal experience of playing soccer at Charleston University in West Virginia, a top NCAA Division II college. Lesly St. Fleur, a DW Davis alum and the top Bahamian soccer player with the most goals in Bahamian beach soccer history, expressed his joy in returning to his alma mater and giving back to the school.
The team members introduced themselves to the students, shared short stories of their soccer journeys, and participated in a fun juggling session with members of the school’s boys and girls soccer teams in center court.
The visit also served as an opportunity to share details about the upcoming Concacaf Beach Soccer Championship, highlighting the importance of the Bahamas Football Association (BFA) giving back to the community. The BFA is making special arrangements for schools that want to bring groups of students to the daytime matches, encouraging all schools to attend and support the Men’s National Beach Soccer Team.
By engaging with the students and showcasing their passion for the sport, the Men’s National Beach Soccer Team aims to inspire the next generation of soccer enthusiasts and promote the importance of education, hard work, and dedication in achieving success both on and off the field.
