Kathon Kenroy St. Hillaire (born 5 November 1997) is a Trinidadian footballer who plays for Defence Force.
Club career
St. Hillaire began playing football at the East Mucurapo Secondary School, where he helped them to the 2014 National Intercol tournament title.[1] The following year he enrolled at the St. Anthony's College, where he continued playing football in the Secondary Schools Football League Premier Division.[2] With St. Anthony's College he won the North Zone Intercol trophy in 2015.[3]
In early 2017 he joined TT Pro League club St. Ann's Rangers,[4] but joined Defence Force the following year, making his debut in a 4–0 First Citizens Cup win against San Juan Jabloteh on 10 June 2018.[5]
The following month he moved to Czechia, joining Czech National Football League club SC Znojmo, penning a three-year deal in July 2018, following a two-week trial.[6] He scored his first goal for the club on 17 August 2018 against FK Třinec in a 2–0 win.[7] After two goals in his first seven games for the club,[8] he left Czechia after being called up to the Trinidad and Tobago national team. On his return to the Eastern European nation, he struggled with receiving a new visa.[9]
Despite signing a three-year deal, he left the club the following year, spending a brief period with Slovak Super Liga club ŠKF Sereď, before returning to Trinidad and Tobago to join San Juan Jabloteh. He returned to SC Znojmo later in 2019,[10] before joining Slovak 2. Liga club FK Poprad the following year. Despite finishing as the team's top scorer in the 2020–21 season with three goals, he was unable to help prevent Poprad being relegated.[11]
