ITTA BENA, MS - Olujede Bridgewater has been called up to join the St. Kitts-Nevis Senior Women's Football Team for the CONCACAF Women's Gold Cup Qualifiers.

Olujede Bridgewater, a current sophomore forward at Mississippi Valley State University showcasing her talents on the collegiate soccer stage, has been summoned to join the St. Kitts-Nevis Senior Women's Football Team for the CONCACAF Women's Gold Cup Qualifiers during the October 2023 International Match Window. Bridgewater, who grew up in Basseterre, St. Kitts, will represent her home country on the international stage.

The CONCACAF Women's Gold Cup is an upcoming international women's football competition contested by the senior women's national teams of the member associations of CONCACAF, the regional governing body of North America, Central America, and the Caribbean.

St. Kitts and Nevis made their mark as a member of CONCACAF and FIFA in 1992. The nation had been participating in international competitions, steadily working to elevate their presence in the soccer world, and now, Olujede gets to be a part of that journey.
 
Team St. Kitts-Nevis will compete against Haiti on October 26, 2023 and October 30, 2023. Both matches will be played at the SKNFA Technical Center in St. Peters. 

"I know Haiti is just coming from the World Cup, which is a top-notch team. We relish the moment to put on a good show," said Head Coach Samuel Phipps.

Olujede's journey from Basseterre to the international stage has come full circle. Olujede is an inspiration for aspiring footballers across her beloved island, proving that with hard work and determination, even the smallest nations could achieve greatness in the world of soccer.
