As a player, he played professional football for Honduran club sides Progreso, Olimpia and Motagua. He scored 11 goals for them altogether.[2] He is one of only few Honduran players who made his debut for a senior side, aged only 15.[3]

CONCACAF

Hawit, having seen Jack Warner's reign as CONCACAF President last twenty one years, proposed that the CONCACAF president should be able to serve only one four year-term at a time and for the Caribbean Football Union, UNCAF and North American Football Union to nominate the president on a rotary basis. He was an interim president of CONCACAF.[4]
