Karibská fotbalová unie
Karibská fotbalová unie (anglicky Caribbean Football Union), známá též pod zkratkou CFU, je fotbalová asociace, která sdružuje národní fotbalové svazy všech nezávislých států a většiny závislých území v Karibiku. Zároveň sem spadají i fotbalové svazy Surinamu, Guyany a Francouzské Guyany, které leží na jihoamerickém kontinentu a Bermud, které z geografického hlediska patří do Severní Ameriky. CFU pořádala do roku 2017 Karibský pohár, který sloužil jako kvalifikace 4 nejlepších týmů na Zlatý pohár CONCACAF. CFU je společně se Středoamerickou fotbalovou unií a Severoamerickou fotbalovou unií součástí CONCACAFu (fotbalové asociace Severní Ameriky, Střední Ameriky a Karibiku).

Flag of Jamaica.svg
Flag of Jamaica. “The sunshine, the land is green, and the people are strong and bold” is the symbolism of the colours of the flag. GOLD represents the natural wealth and beauty of sunlight; GREEN represents hope and agricultural resources; BLACK represents the strength and creativity of the people. The original symbolism, however, was "Hardships there are, but the land is green, and the sun shineth", where BLACK represented the hardships being faced.
