Bringing The Vibes

Trinbagonians love "liming" which includes food, drinks, music and a vibey atmosphere. Our section in the stadium usually has a rhythm section, music, flags, signs, face painting, smoke, and other entertainment to hype the crowd and the players.

We simply wanted to bring this aspect of our culture into supporting the national team. We have seen fans all over the world, from Brazil, Argentina, England, Germany, and Mexico celebrate their national team by creating a particular atmosphere at matches. This is what we are aiming to create.

The inspiration for D Vibes Section came on Saturday, March 24, 2022. I was discussing with my girlfriend how I could encourage more supporters for our national team. We are always looking at ways to encourage supporters. We launched 24 hours before the game against Guyana on March 29th, and the rest was history!
