Former UTT Patriots Volleyball student-athlete, Asia 'Azi' Joseph, has been selected as the Strength and Conditioning (S&C) Coach for the West Indies (WI) Under-19 Women's T20 International (T20I) team.

The team is currently in Florida to face the USA Women's U19 contingent in a five (5) match series. This is in preparation for the inaugural International Cricket Council (ICC) U19 Women's Cricket World Cup to be hosted in South Africa in January 2023.

Joseph, who currently works as a Teaching Assistant at Florida International University (FIU), has been making a name for herself in the sporting industry, both regionally and internationally. In 2021, she was the first female to have served as S&C Coach for the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) T20 team and league champions, the St. Kitts & Nevis Patriots. She is also the S&C Coach of the women's tennis programme at FIU.

The series is part of a strategic partnership between Cricket West Indies (CWI) and USA Cricket. The matches will be played at the Broward County Stadium from 8 to 14 August, 2022.
