FLOW Super Cup announces Dominic James MVP award
KINGSTON, Jamaica — Organisers of the FLOW Super Cup have decided to name the most valuable player (MVP) of the tournament in honour of Dominic James who died recently.
James is the only person to have won the FLOW Super Cup twice having done so with Jamaica College in the inaugural year in 2014 and again last year with St Georges College in 2015.
“The idea behind this award is to pay recognition to young Dominic James in a spectacular way as he is the only player to have won both Super Cup trophies, the first with Jamaica College and the second with St George’s College. I am happy to announce that the most valuable player in the 2016 ISSA FLOW Super Cup tournament will receive the Dominic James MVP Award,” said Carlo Redwood, vice-president of marketing at Flow.
“The winner of this trophy will also receive $100,000 in scholarship,” he added.
James died while representing St Georges College in their Manning Cup game against Excelsior High. He collapsed on the field some two minutes into the game and died at the hospital while undergoing treatment.
