Jones, who has been showing fine form of late for Stoke City in the EPL and leads his team into the FA Cup finals on May 14, said he is excited to be a part of the tournament and is eagerly anticipating returning to the Caribbean where he can help inspire others to greatness.
“I’m honoured to represent Guinness on the Street Football Challenge. Guinness represents Greatness and the desire to reach for Greatness and that’s something I can relate to,” Jones said. “Every day I go up against some of the best players in the world and I am successful because I work towards greatness each time.”
Jones, 26, noted the significance of the tournament in fostering a sense of unity and togetherness within the communities the tournament is taking place.
“Football has long been the Caribbean’s number one sport and with Guinness focusing on communities, every man will get the chance to display his greatness through the Guinness Street Football Challenge,? Jones added.
The Guinness Street Football Challenge starts this weekend and includes footballers from the eight zones nationwide. The grand finale is set for May 28.
While in Grenada, Jones will present the medals and trophies to the winning team, interact with fans and make himself available for press interviews.
Fans of the Guinness Street Football Challenge will get a rare opportunity to challenge Jones at a skills competition during halftime of the finals. All consumers have to do is say what Greatness means to them and post it on the Guinness Caribbean Facebook Page (www.facebook.com/GuinnessCaribbean).

Jones pointed out that the Guinness Street Football Challenge is a great platform for players and fans alike to show their support and love for the game.
“The Guinness Street Football Challenge is an awesome opportunity for football players and fans to connect with something that gives them a sense of pride, enjoyment and the ability to display their greatness. Whether you’re the most skilled player or the most supportive fan on earth, this event gives you the opportunity to demonstrate that” Jones said.
