Joevin Martin Jones (born 3 August 1991) is a Trinidadian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for MLS club Chicago Fire. He also represents the Trinidad and Tobago national team primarily playing as a left-wing back. Jones' professional career began with W Connection in his native Trinidad and Tobago, where he made his first-team debut in 2009, at the age of 17. During his time with the ''Savonetta Boys'', Jones has won the TT Pro League title twice and the FA Trophy in 2013–14. In international football, Jones made his Trinidad and Tobago debut in September 2010, at the age of 19. With the ''Soca Warriors'' he has participated in three major tournaments, namely the 2011 Pan American Games, 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup and the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup. ==Early life== Jones was born in Carenage, Trinidad and Tobago, to parents Kelvin and Merlin. Joevin began playing football at the age of six and attributes his early passion for the sport to his father, who is a former defender for the Trinidad and Tobago national team. During his father's playing career, Kelvin woke up his three sons, Marvin, Joevin, and Alvin, to train each morning together. In fact, the three brothers consistently evaluate their siblings' performances following each match and suggest areas for improvement. Joevin began his football education when he attended coaching school from former ''Soca Warrior'' player and manager Ronald La Forest. At the age of 14, Jones attended Mucurapo Senior Comprehensive in Port of Spain, Trinidad and also enrolled in the youth program at TT Pro League club Defence Force. However, after a couple of seasons with the ''Teteron Boys'', Jones decided to switch to the youth program in Couva with fellow Pro League club W Connection. In 2008, playing as left-back, Jones led Mucurapo to the Secondary Schools Football League (SSFL) North Zone title and the national Intercol Big Five crown. He was also named among the top five best league players along with Mucurapo and future international teammate Kevin Molino. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joevin Jones」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
