Simmonds and Washington Headed To National Team Camp With Jamaica
June 08, 2023 | Soccer
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee redshirt-senior Giselle Washington and sophomore Kameron Simmonds have been called into camp with the Jamaican Women's National Team from June 11-20 in Kingston, Jamaica.
The pair attended camp together once previously in September 2022 ahead of an international friendly against South Korea.
Washington has been active with the senior team in the past, scoring four goals during the 2019 CONCACAF World Cup qualifying stage. Her performance helped the Reggae Girlz qualify for the country's first-ever FIFA Women's World Cup, but a torn ACL in May 2019 kept her sidelined during that tournament.
Simmonds attended her first camp with the senior squad last fall during her rookie season at UT. She was called into camp again in January of 2023 and netted her first international goal for the senior team against the Czech Republic at the 2023 Cup of Nations.
She has also taken the field with the Jamaican U-20 and U-17 teams, scoring a goal last year at the 2022Â CONCACAF U-20 Championship.
This camp will be Jamaica's final training opportunity before attending the FIFA Women's World Cup Australia & New Zealand 2023 that will run from July 20 to August 20.Â
