George Las Caris, the President of the Barbados Cup, has had a long and varied involvement in football over the past four (4) decades.

At 16, he was called up to the Junior National team as a goalkeeper until he gained selection to the Senior Team two (2) years later.

He was an outstanding collegiate player representing Hofstan University in the then E.C.A.C. Conference. A very serious injury in his senior year ended any hopes of a professional career even though he had received several offers for N.A.S.I. teams

He returned to Barbados and served with the Everton Football Club in several capacities before being elected Manager of the Junior National team.

In 1987 he was first elected President of the Barbados Football Association and was subsequently re-elected on four (4) other occasions. Today his passion is the Barbados Cup.
