KINGSTON, Jamaica, CMC – Organizers of the 2025/26 Jamaica Women’s Premier League (JWPL) have revealed that 13 players gained either professional contracts or scholarships due to their involvement in the competition.
With the second season set to kick off on March 7, Christine Hudson, chairperson of the Professional Women’s Football Jamaica Limited (PWFJL), disclosed that 11 players received scholarships and two earned professional contracts after last year’s successful staging.
Champions Frazsiers Whip had two players gain professional contracts: Davia Richards, who signed for ZFK Masinac in Serbia, and Tiny Seaton, who signed with World Girls FC in Liberia.
Eight other players from Frasziers Whip got scholarships to local and overseas colleges and universities: Devonae Lewis (University of Maine), Sajane Anderson (Eastern Florida State Academy), Sahai Panton (High Mowing School), Makala Williams and Shakira Richards (Redland Community College), Destiny Powell (Daytona State College), Cassandra Smith, and Janiel Mignott (Cisco College).
Additionally, Dejaunae Lewis of Los Perfectos is off to the University of Maine, Fredrika Finnikin of Springers is at Seminole State College, and Kayla Kidd of Proven FC is on her way to Shortwood Teachers College.
Hudson said this was a result of the organisation establishing a digital footprint, which led to increased visibility across all platforms.
“Last season marked our inaugural year managing the marketing and commercialisation of the league, and I am proud to say that it exceeded expectations.
“We introduced live streaming and created tangible opportunities for our players, including university scholarships and professional contracts. That is impact. That is transformation. That is why this work matters,” Hudson said.
“As we enter our second season, we are raising the bar, strengthening our digital footprint, expanding capacity-building initiatives, and building a sustainable ecosystem for women’s football in Jamaica.”
