Poida says with the tournament fast approaching he is certain his side will be prepared for the March 21 kick-off but that it is imperative the players continue to put in the hard yards now.
“The players must be very serious and attend all training sessions organised by me and my assistant coach Wilson August,” Poida says.
“I know that most of our boys are playing with their respective clubs in the Port Vila Shield competition now but they need to attend training every Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday mornings at Korman Stadium.”
The extended selection of players come from at least seven different club sides including Tafea FC, Shepherds United, Erakor Golden Star and Spirit 08 and includes recent Solomon Warriors signing Brian Kaltak.
The OFC U-20 Championship runs from March 21-29 in Fiji.
