Club Awards & Chocolate Lords!
We can finally say goodbye to the 2004 season thanks to a very successful end-of-season Academy do. The locals in The Wellfield probably did not know what hit them when members from throughout the Academy descended upon them, filling their pub with music, laughter, food and mayhem! Dismayed regulars wondered what all the excitement was about, asking about our game, and trotting out the odd regular line like “well, it’s all the stopping and starting I don’t like” or even “I didn’t know we had American Football in this country”!
But on Saturday night, soccer fans did not matter, as the hard work of last season was celebrated by not only copious amounts of food, drink and merriment, but also by the Club Awards, which recognise people’s efforts and achievements.
With unanimous support and applause, the 2004 Chairman’s Cup was awarded to Wolverines Colts Team Manager Emma Chatwood, whose enormous efforts for the squad have been the key to the many successes throughout the season. Her outstanding dedication, efficiency and attention to other people make her a tower of strength to everyone within The Wolverines Colts, and she is greatly valued and appreciated. Congratulations and thanks go to Emma.
Other 2004 Colts’ Club Awards were:
2004 Rookie of the year Andrew French
2004 Most Improved Player Of The Year Daniel Van Spelde
2004 Offensive Player Of The Year David Mead
2004 Defensive Player Of The Year Alex Dunn
2004 Special Team Player Of The Year Marc Liptrot
2004 Iron Man Player Of The Year Michael Keane
2004 Hitter Of The Year Jonathan Kohler
2004 Most Committed Player Of The Year Joe Eastham
2004 Players' player Austin McCormick
2004 Coaches' player Edd Cairns
Congratulations go to everyone within The Colts for a successful 2004 season. The efforts made and lessons learned this past year will surely make next year’s end-of-season do incorporate the BYAFA Bowl trophy!
Finally, police are on the lookout for the fiend who vandalised Lordy’s car by covering it in chocolate cake! The suspect is believed to show signs of chocolate on his hands and clothes, and is likely to posses an insane grin. When police were asked if there was a bounty, they replied that it was just an ordinary chocolate gateau!
