Wayne Dover will continue as interim head coach of Guyana’s senior men’s national football team, the Golden Jaguars, for their crucial CONCACAF Gold Cup qualifiers in March. Guyana faces Guatemala in a home-and-away series, with the winner advancing to the Gold Cup in June 2025.
The Guyana Football Federation (GFF) confirmed the appointment while searching for a permanent head coach. Since the vacancy was announced in December, over 200 applications have been received worldwide.
The GFF has committed to a thorough selection process and expects to announce by the end of March.
“The Guyana Football Federation is pleased to announce that Wayne Dover will continue to serve as interim head coach of the senior men’s national team for the upcoming CONCACAF Gold Cup Qualifiers window in March,” the GFF said in a statement.
“As the Golden Jaguars prepare for their Gold Cup qualification, the federation remains focused on ensuring the best possible leadership for the national team both in the immediate campaigns slated for 2025 and the long-term development of Guyana’s football.”
Dover became interim coach after the GFF ended its contract with Jamaal Shabazz.
The Golden Jaguars recently qualified for the Gold Cup Prelims with a 9-4 aggregate win against Barbados.
