Career

Until the dissolution of the Netherlands Antilles on October 10, 2010, the island of Bonaire was part of said Dutch overseas territory. Until then, players from Bonaire had the opportunity to play for the national football team of the Netherlands Antilles and the Netherlands . After the overseas territory was dissolved, the islands founded their own football associations - in the case of Bonaire , the Federashon Futbòl Boneriano - and provided their own national football teams . Arturo Charles was appointed Bonaire's first national coach and completed his first (still unofficial) international match on February 28, 2010, before the Dutch Antilles were dissolved. The game against Curaçao at the Ergilio Hato stadium in Willemstad ended in a 4-0 defeat for Bonaire. Shortly after the overseas territory was dissolved and the political reorganization was carried out, he was in charge of the team at the 2010 ABCS tournament . In the first game against Suriname he and his team lost 4-2. The final game for 3rd place against Aruba was canceled when the score was 3: 3 because some players left the pitch prematurely. The game was retrospectively rated in Aruba's favor.

At the 2011 ABCS tournament, which took place more than a year later , Charles and the Bonair national team celebrated the first victory in its young history. After a 3-1 win over Curaçao in their first game, Bonaire won the final against Aruba 4-3 on penalties. It should be noted that the game ended in a 2-2 draw after regular time, after which no extra time took place, but instead went straight to penalties. In the following year, Charles was still in charge of the team in the 2012 ABCS tournament , but quickly retired with the team as a clear loser from the tournament. An 8-0 defeat against Suriname in the first game at Complejo Deportivo Guillermo Próspero Trinidad from Oranjestad on Aruba was followed two days later in the same stadium by a 9-2 defeat against Curaçao in the third-place match. who works as a radio presenter for the local broadcaster Broadcasting Network Bonaire 107.5FM (also ESPN Bonaire 107.5FM ), his coaching position and was replaced by Rudsel Sint Jago .
