A new Initiative to greatly
improve access to football match tickets, has been introduced by
the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF). This new venture, a
partnership with IslandStubbs.com will see tickets to the March 26
game between Jamaica and Trinidad being sold online. The JFF has
expanded their mandate for development of the sport, to include
the comfort of the patrons, as they launch eticketing for
the first time in the history of the local game. Sales will hit
the internet at 12:00am Sunday March 16.
Grandstand tickets for Blocks O
and F will be available for online purchase with local or
international credit cards or pay pal accounts over a secured
network. Purchasers will also be able to select their preferred
seat at the time of purchase. After successfully completing the
transaction, patrons may collect the physical ticket at the JFF’s
‘Will Call’ station, which will open at the New Kingston Golf
Academy as of Saturday March 22. This unit will remain open until
