  1. Thanks Lasana Liburd and no problem Kirwin Weston

  2. Finally I see this rasping Allen bullet ! Thanks for the video Travis Joseph (Y)

  3. Very nice footage by the way, Travis Joseph. 😉

  4. Its amazing Kwesi was not in that top five while he supposed to be challenging for the top award. Apparently football is never about facts anymore but personal opinions. Kwesi was the Best forward in the league and his stats and his quality of goals matches that. If you disagree that’s your opinion again.

  5. Ok. That would have been Naps and St Augustine.

  6. They just have an award for school of the year that the SSFL don’t have. St. Augustine Girls should really be recognized for their exploits

  7. Congrats to Naparima and all the teams that participated in the 2014 premiership season great article once again las .

  8. Bright future ahead…keep striving for perfection. ..

  9. What does the SSCL do differently?

  10. I won’t argue with that. All in all, they selected a good team. The main difference with my squad would be that I had Aaron Noel from CIC and Shane Sandy from Naps in there as well. Those two were in my first XI.

  11. I think the SSFL needs to award a male/female team of the year award and a school of the year award like the SSCL

  12. I think Kwesi Allen replaces N. Dillion in that top 5 for me.

  13. Its amazing Kwesi was not in that top five. Apparently football is never about facts anymore but personal opinions. Kwesi was the Best forward in the league and his stats and his quality of goals matches that. If you disagree that’s your opinion again.
