Former England skipper and former Newcastle United and Liverpool player, Kevin Keegan was at the V.I. in 1985 to conduct a coaching clinic under the auspices of the Coca Cola Company. He last played for Newcastle United in the 1983-1984 season when Newcastle was still in the Second Division but called it a day when the club gained its promotion to the First Division. The 2000 England Coach, Keegan is seen showing his footballing skills on the V.I. green. He is one of a long line of famous sportsmen who have graced the V.I. - including Olympians Jesse Owens, William Campbell and Parry O'Brien.
