The Caribbean Football Union (CFU) honored referees who have represented the region on the world stage, including Kenisha Antoine, who served as a FIFA Fitness Instructor at the World Cup, and Dianne Ferreira James, a true pioneer in the sport.
Dianne made history as the first Caribbean referee—male or female—to officiate a FIFA World Cup Final at the U19 FIFA World Cup in 2002 in Edmonton, Canada. Her journey shows what’s possible when dedication, skill, and passion meet opportunity.
As we continue celebrating #IWD2025, we recognize the women leading the way in officiating, coaching, and playing the game. The impact of these women extends far beyond the pitch, paving the way for future generations.
