AS WE RISEWE ARE JAMAICA STRONG

To our resilient youth athletes, dedicated high school players, and unwavering national team members,

In the wake of Hurricane Melissa, our island home has been tested. The path to recovery may feel daunting, with fields flooded, routines disrupted, and our hearts heavy for all who have been affected.

It is natural to feel a sense of loss. But now is the time to remember the very principles we live on the gridiron: resilience, perseverance, and the power of a united front.

Just as we dig deep in the fourth quarter, we must now dig deep as a football family and as Jamaicans. This is our moment to display the true strength that defines us—a strength that is mental, emotional, and communal.

To our youth athletes: You are our future. Your spirit inspires us. Use the discipline of football—patience, hard work, and teamwork—to support your families and rebuild our communities. Your strength gives us all hope.

To our high school athletes: Your season may be paused, but your training in resilience continues. Support your teammates, check on your coaches, and hold onto the vision of returning stronger. This adversity is shaping you into the leaders you are destined to become.

To our national team athletes: You carry Jamaica's flag on the world stage. Now, we call on you to lead by example off the field. Let your resolve be a beacon for our entire NTFA family. The determination you show in training is the same determination our nation needs now.

We will clear our fields. We will rebuild our facilities. We will once again hear the roar of our supporters. But first, we must take care of ourselves, our families, and each other.

Stand together. Reach out to a teammate. Lend a hand to a neighbor. Let’s embody the spirit that makes us unbreakable.

This is not just a slogan; it is our identity, our promise, and our reality.

We are resolute. We are united.

We are JAMAICA STRONG.

With unwavering support,

The Jamaica National Tackle Football Association
