The South Trinidad cricket team played first-class cricket from 1959 to 1979, competing in the Beaumont Cup and its successor competition the Texaco Cup. South Trinidad played North Trinidad annually for the Beaumont Cup from 1925-26 to 1957-58, when the matches were not considered first-class, and from 1958-59 to 1969-70, when they had first-class status. Of these 12 first-class matches, North Trinidad won five and the rest were drawn. South Trinidad's highest score in this period was by Leo John, who scored 120 out of a team total of 215 in 1967-68, and the best bowling figures were 5 for 37 by Kerry Maloney in 1961-62.
