The countrywide trials were due to begin today at three venues -- Rangamati, Sylhet and Rajbari -- but Rangamati and Sylhet will host the trials on January 16 and Rajbari on January 17 according to the new schedule.

The trials at each of the other venues will be deferred by one day and now start on January 10 at Chittagong and Barisal, followed by Feni, Mymensingh (Jan 11), Naogaon, Jessore (Jan 13), Dinajpur (Jan 14) and Dhaka (Jan 15).

The BFF coaches will be working as selectors to form the juvenile national team that will represent hosts Bangladesh in the AFC U-13 Football Festival to be held from May 4-8.
