Elquemedo Tonito Willett (born May 1, 1953, Charlestown, Nevis) is a former West Indian cricketer who played in five Tests from 1973 to 1974. He made his first-class debut for Leeward Islands in 1970-71 at the age of 17, and played his last match in the 1988-89 season. He took 8 for 73 (his best innings figures) and 3 for 44 for the West Indians against Glamorgan in 1973. During New Zealand's tour of the West Indies in 1972, Willett was considered the best of the many left-arm finger-spinners the New Zealanders faced.〔Cameron, D. (1974) ''Caribbean Crusade'', Readers Union, Newton Abbott, p. 40〕 Willett's nephew Stuart Williams has played many Tests and ODIs for the West Indies. His sons, Tonito and Akito Willett also play first-class cricket. In July 2010, Nevis's primary sporting venue, Grove Park, was renamed Elquemedo Willett Park in his honour. The renaming ceremony was a major event for the island, with several members of the Nevis Island Administration participating, including the Premier of Nevis, Joseph Parry.〔("Grove Park Renamed in Cricketer’s Honour" ) – Nevis Island Administration.
