Arnold Dwarika (born 23 February 1973 in Upper Santa Cruz, Trinidad) is a Trinidad and Tobago football player, who plays as a midfielder for North East Stars in the TT Pro League. He went to school at Malick Senior Comprehensive in Trinidad.

Career

Most of his career has been spent in his homeland in the TT Pro League but Dwarika has also had stints in Europe with Scottish side East Fife and Asia with Chinese clubs Qingdao Hailifeng and Guangzhou Pharmaceutical.[1] He was until recently on the books at Joe Public.

He has good skill and vision and can create and score goals. His two goals in Trinidad and Tobago's 3–2 loss to the United States during the 1996 Gold Cup will be remembered for a long time by fans. He has been a regular member of the Trinidad and Tobago senior squad since 1993, and also played an important role in the under-23 Olympic squad of 1996. He was not considered for the national side for some time after 2004, ruling him out of contention for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, but had since returned to the team and played some games.
