Every other team in their group has won the tournament at least once. It will be the first time that Jamaica participates in this tournament.

One of the two teams invited from CONCACAF to participate in the upcoming edition of the Copa America is Jamaica. The Reggae Boys will have their debut in the competition that was first played in 1916. Winfried Schafer and his team will match against Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay in the group stage. Uruguay is the team with the most Copa America titles (15), Argentina has 14 and Paraguay two.

Jamaica is ranked 74th in the FIFA World Rankings. The team has moved up one spot from where they ended last year and six from 2013. Jamaica trails Costa Rica, Mexico, U.S.A, Panama and Trinidad and Tobago when it comes to the CONCACAF rankings. Along with Mexico, they will also play the Gold Cup this summer.

History in Copa America

Jamaica had never been invited to play in this tournament. They will be the only team to debut in this edition. CONCACAF will host it in 2016 to celebrate 100 years of the tournament's creation, so you can expect them to be back next year. In every edition there are usually two North American teams, and Japan is the only Asian team to have participated out of any other region.

Players to Watch

For Schafer, it has not been easy to come up with a team that could compete against Messi and company. Most clubs in Jamaica have financial problems that limit the development of many players. Their star player is Giles Barnes, a former Derby player in England, has found success with Houston Dynamo in the MLS. After 12 games this season, Barnes has scored six goals. Michael Hector, from Reading will be among the leaders of the defensive unit. He is one of the five Premier League players on Schafer's roster.
