After winning out in
Morvant Cipriani United
entered the Super
League against power
house teams like Sir
Frank XI, TESCA, and
Ebonites. After a tough
first round, the team
turned the tables and
reversed losses in the
second round.
The Super League was
played at the University
of the West Indies (UWI)
ground in St Augustine in
the football off-season
and Cipriani United was
the first team with which I
played multiple seasons
that included an
undefeated season.
In 1971 Cipriani won the
Eddie Hart Football
League which is recog-
nized as the most
competitive community
football league in T&T.

Eddie Hart league was
where the top
footballers in the
country played and
where Cipriani
players received
national attention.
Errol Sebro won
the league Most
Valuable Player on his
way to starting for the
national team while
Victor McGill, Lance
Dillon, and Keith Bruce
were on the brink of a
national call ups.
Over shadowed were
two of Cipriani’s best
players in Christford
“Puss” Williamson and
Reynold “Waterhead”
Hunte. However, they
played solely in
Morvant in their prime;
And not to mention
Val Sebro became the
marquee but migrated
before he receive his
national call up.
