Fifa
we have to go by fifa's rule, they are the final authority in football. Also, to make it relevant to every other nation's wiki we should go by fifa's standings 07:25, 25 March 2008 Krayziegunts

Hard to find much about the Jamaican national team's record-holders. Based on this site - http://www.reggaeboyzsc.com/playerprofile.aspx?id=25&squad=Former-Player, I strongly suspect Brown's got the most. Here's the list I compiled:

durrant brown 132 warren barrett - 121 hector wright - 110 linval dixon - 96 peter cargill - 84

As for goals, I think Onandi Lowe and Walter Boyd both have 19; I bet this is probably the record, but I'm not tremendously confident. Theodore Whitmore has 24 goals and holds the record.

- according to RSSSF: http://www.rsssf.com/miscellaneous/century.html Note that the Jamaican FA includes all matches, even against club sides, youth teams or olympic representations. They have Barrett at 127 and Brown at 111, not sure how recent those numbers are. Maybe just leave Brown there, put Lowe/Boyd at goals and put an * next to each, implying not FIFA official? --Dryazan 02:08, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)

--- I think we ought to go by what rsssf says - I'm confident that FIFA isn't counting matches against club sides, Olympics, etc., but I'll leave the decision up to you.

The current team captain is Ricardo Gardener

--- Allien Whittaker was born 19 June 1983 http://nationalfootballteams.com/v2/country.php?id=93

Grenada Jamaica Scorer
Both the Jamaica Gleaner and Observer, as well as International Press have reported that Fuller scored the goal. See Gleaner Observer Rasadam (talk) 14:47, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Surely John Barnes should have an English flag next to his name? Just like Marlon King and Deon Burton have a Jamaican flag next to theirs as they're English born but play for the Jamaican national side. The precedent is to use the flag of the country they represent(ed). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.195.210.76 (talk) 13:04, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Nicknames
The Jamaica Football Federation uses the nickname "Reggae Boyz", and the "UB40" nickname is referenced by the Jamaica Gleaner. An IP maintains that the nickname is derogatory (and I agree- especially the UB40 one)- maybe the nicknames should be put in a separate section, given that the "Boyz" one seems to have official sanction.

Jamaica national football team → Jamaica men's national football team – Due to recent coverage of the Jamaica women’s team, notably recent payment issues (BBC, ESPN, and Goal.) These sources were all found through a search of “Jamaica football.” Additionally, the drama before the World Cup with sources such as AP, The Athletic, and ESPN. I believe that this is significant enough coverage to find the subject on-par of importance levels with the men’s team. Yoblyblob (talk) 16:59, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Strong oppose. We just went over this with Afghanistan et al; the men's teams are the primary topics.  O.N.R.  (talk) 18:13, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
 * The mass RM resulted in no consensus. It did not establish that all men's teams are primary and does not prejudice individual renominations. Stevie fae Scotland (talk) 20:37, 2 November 2023 (UTC)


 * Oppose, men's team is more significant long-term. Short-term coverage because of the WWC is just a blip, else we'd be changing PRIMARYs after every World Cup.--Ortizesp (talk) 19:09, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose per above.
