I think willie rodriguez played for both West Indies cricket and a short-lived West Indies football team.  So I'm guessing he made the TT teams in both sports.

Thanks guys. I knew when I was growing up, a lot sportsmen would play two sports. In QRC, all the fotballers wwould also play cricket, hockey or track. And they good at both. Saints and fatima were the same.

Add Gerry Gomez and Roy Seon to that list.

Roy was a helluva footballer originally from South TT. Played football for both North and South and TT.

Was also 12th man on a TT cricket team back in the 40s.
