In announcing the tournament, a NVCC spokesperson said, “This first annual tournament will honour one of the Club’s fallen heroes Charles Emery. Often known as Charlie, he represented North Village until his untimely death in 1988,” a spokesperson said.

“Charlie wore the #9 jersey, which is the only retired jersey number in the North Village Premier team. Charlie represented North Village in crucial matches alongside the Bean and Dill brothers with his devastating speed and attacking nature.

“During his time Charlie was a part of Bermuda’s Youth National Squad that flew to Honduras for the CONCACAF championship and was referred to as the ‘best youth team’ during that time.”

“In acknowledgement of his honour, North Village Community Club will remember Charlie during the preseason tournament which will feature the following teams; Hamilton Parish Hot Peppers, Devonshire Colts, Robin Hood Football Club and the North Village Rams.”
