The squad includes 12 players who were part of the last camp, with an additional 13 invited to the six-day exercise, which is being used by Whitmore to aid his selections for the tournament which gets underway in Puerto Rico on July 22.Named among the new invitees are St James High hotshot, Allan Ottey, who was in January called to a training squad with the senior Reggae Boyz ahead of a friendly international against Canada.
