Annual Awards Presentation Evening 2007
Under 13's Sunday
performances from this team
resulting in a final placing of 8th in a very competitive and tough
league.
On occasions this team has produced some
fine performances with a thrilling 4-3 defeat in the cup to the league runners
up one of the highlights followed by some real lows as a number of teams have
inflicted heavy defeats upon them.
Consistent performers such as Ryan Ward,
Jack Mosedale and Eamon Loftus never gave less than 100 percent and midfielders
Anthony Timmins and Sam Henderson provided the determination that is needed to
be successful at this level.
However as the boys get older and bigger the
knocks and bumps sustained in a season take their toll and some, like Skipper
Joe Wells have tried to play when perhaps they should have rested but
this only goes to prove the great team spirit which exists within this team.
A few new boys have joined us this year Luke
Cutts in goal keeping us in a number of games with some great saves and Liam
Ward and Kane Orange battling away in midfield. Also we found our own Gary
Lineker as Ryan Mcginn signed late in the season but still managed to poach a
number of goals all less than 3 yards from the goal line I might add!
The only thing this team lacks is a little
more self discipline and a little more self belief because really with the
talent that’s in this team they should be aiming for a top three finish next
year.

Players, Player of the Year Nathan Giugno This award is chosen by the players themselves and the winner of this is a popular boy who, whilst being an uncompromising defender, can on occasions score goals and is always willing to put himself in were it hurts. He is never afraid to speak his mind, although it might be nice if the manager got a chance to speak back every now and then! |

Sportsman / Most Improved Player Jack Caudwell At a recent meeting the committee
couldn’t decide what to call this award but this boy settled the
argument for us as he his no doubt a great Sportsman.
He has he never moaned when he was on the bench at the start of the
season. He didn’t stop coming training because he wasn’t starting on a
Sunday morning he came and he trained hard and then when he got his chance
he took it and has been superb at the heart of our defence. He is the most improved player this year by a mile and now one of the first names on the team sheet. |

Managers, Player of the Year Sam Woodcock Just occasionally a manager gets to say I told you so and this is one of those occasions. Having watched this boy
perform for Saturday teams and South Nott’s Boys we predicted a bright
future in football for this boy and was very pleased when he signed for us
this year He has been outstanding
in either defence or midfield where we have asked him to play for the
second half of the season His work rate his phenomenal, his tackling tough and in midfield another side of him has come through as he has both created and scored a number of goals. |
