Gregory Messam
Gregory Messam (born 24 July 1973) is a Jamaican football defender.
Nicknamed 'Skippy', the solid left-back played for local teams Arnett Gardens F.C. and Olympic Gardens F.C.,[1] and has played overseas for Richmond Kickers, then of the USA A-League.[2]
During 1996, Messam played for the Colorado Foxes[3] in the A-League, where he played alongside fellow Jamaican internationals Walter Boyd, Wolde Harris, Fabian Davis, and Anthony McCreath under the direction of head coach Lorne Donaldson.
He made his debut as a substitute for the Reggae Boyz in 1995 against Canada and played his last international in 1998 against Trinidad & Tobago, collecting over 30 caps. Messam was a regular starter at left wingback during the early rounds of Jamaica's successful World Cup qualifying effort in 1998.[3] He unfortunately was left out of Jamaica's 1998 FIFA World Cup squad in favour of Ricardo Gardner, but he was however allowed to accompany the team in France.
