BRIDGETOWN, Barbados – The Barbados Football Association (BFA) announces the appointment of former national midfielder Kent Hall as the interim head coach of the Barbados senior men’s national football team with immediate effect until December 31, 2024.

Hall, the BFA head of coaching education is a certified FIFA & Concacaf coach educator, Concacaf B License holder who also served as assistant men’s national coach and head coach of the Barbados U-20 national team.
Hall said “ It’s certainly a job that I have been interested in for a long time. I’ve always had a dream about having this position. I am relishing the opportunity to take the reigns and see what we can do. Right now we haven’t had the best results for our senior men’s national team and I am really hoping that we can change though fortunes.”
“The initial focus obviously is trying to get in there and establish a philosophy of play that we want to have. We know the World Cup qualifying campaign is a tough one so we will use these games to help us gauge where we are and help us get experience. We will look towards the Nations League to start building towards what we hope is the next generation of Barbados football that would get us to where we want to be which is qualifying for major tournaments in the future.”
