Barcelona Cricket Club Together with his older brother, Samuel, he was one of the first pioneers of
football in Catalonia, being part of the first known club to have played football in the city, the
Barcelona Cricket Club, which his father and Samuel, among other Britons, had founded in 1891, since at the time it was common to play
cricket in the
summer and then football in the
winter. Samuel and his father then helped founding the
Barcelona Football Club in late 1892, which held the first known football match in the city at
Hippodrome of Can Tunis on 25 December 1892.
Sociedad de Foot-Ball de Barcelona In late 1894, Morris joined the
Barcelona Football Club, which had now changed its name to
Sociedad de Foot-Ball de Barcelona. He also played against teams from
Sant Martí and
Torelló, scoring once against the latter on 24 March 1895, thus helping his side to an 8–3 victory. Following the departure of James Reeves, the club's captain and leader, the Barcelona Football Society declined and disappeared around 1896. The city then went through a period of lack of interest in football, and for this reason, no Briton played football in Spain (that we know of) in 1897 and 1898. and the second in May of 1902, when they reinforced FC Barcelona during its participation in the
Copa de la Coronación (predecessor of
Copa del Rey). In doing so, they became the first-ever Filipinos to play for FC Barcelona, ahead of the likes of
Manuel Amechazurra and
Paulino Alcántara. In total, he played 4 official matches for Barcelona and scored two goals in the
1904–05 season. Later, in the 1909–10 season, he participated in the First Category Championship of Catalonia with the modest
Star FC, becoming its captain and later being joined by Miguel. ==Death==
