I was trying to idolise my dad as he was playing for the black team who were one of the few who were playing against the white people.

More quotes by Chester Williams

In all my playing years, most white players and coaches believed that a black selection weakened the team.

My experience was that only a minority of players looked beyond the colour of the skin.

I remember we had to get changed on the bus as the changing rooms were only for white players.

We all looked different, but our personalities haven't changed.

I never thought I'd have the lifestyle I have now ... It was difficult times when I was growing up.
