Fabian Dawkins (born 7 February 1981 in Duncans, Trelawny Parish) is a Jamaican footballer, who currently plays for the Arnett Gardens F.C..

Club career

Dawkins grew up in August Town, St. Andrew and attended Jamaica College. Nicknamed 'Renaldo', the attacking midfielder started his career at Village United F.C. in the Jamaican National Premier League, where he became their leading goalscorer for three seasons running. He then moved abroad with former Village teammate Shane Crawford to play two seasons for the Atlanta Silverbacks[1] and later joined the Montreal Impact[2] in the USL First Division after he was traded in January 2007 with Jason McLaughlin for forward Mauricio Salles and Daniel Antoniuk. In 2007 he was loaned to the Impact's farm team the Trois-Rivières Attak of the Canadian Soccer League. He made his debut for the club on June 3, 2007 in a match against Portuguese Supra, which resulted in the club's first home victory by a score 4-2.[3] In between the USL 1st division seasons, he went back to Jamaica to form prolific strike partnerships with Newton Sterling and Teafore Bennett at Village United.

International career

He appeared in the 2001 FIFA World Youth Championship in Argentina, where he captained the squad and scored their only goal of the tournament. He made his debut for the "Reggae Boyz" in 2001 against Grenada and has collected a total of 17 caps (scoring one goal) until October 2006.
