The Englishman played for Manchester United, Preston North End, West Ham and Leyton Orient (1952-1963) before arriving in South Africa in 1970. Lewis coached Wits University — a white team — to a famous 3-2 victory over Soweto giants Kaizer Chiefs in the 1978 Mainstay Cup final. He later coached Chiefs, Moroka Swallows, and other historically black sides.
