The Deeside D1 Dragons team held their End Of Season Presentation Evening at the Connah’s Quay Civic Hall on Friday evening.
The
annual event is always very popular with fans and players alike as it enables
everybody involved with the club to come together in a relaxed environment and celebrate
the season.
The
Player awards were:
- Top Points – Jake Witkowski
- Players’ Player Of The Season – Colin Cromie
- Coaches’ Player Of The Season – Ethan Mayoh
- Young Player of the Season – Tyler de la Bertouche
- Supporters’ Player of the Season – Tyler de la Bertouche
Two
new awards were introduced for this season:
The
Marc Lovell Trophy – awarded to the best “team player” – went to Ross Kennedy
and
the Peter Sheffield Memorial Shield - in memory of the long term Dragons
photographer and media man who tragically died in November 2024 - for the
unsung hero of the year, and this was awarded to team captain Jared Dickinson.
A
special “Man Of Steel” award was presented to the 4 players who had taken part
in all 49 of the Dragons games over the course of the season (36 Moralee
Division, 2 preseason challenge, 2 Welsh Cup, 4 Moralee Cup knockout, 4 Moralee
Play Off knockout, 1 Moralee Play Off final) and these went to Ethan Mayoh,
Jake Witkowski, Colin Cromie and Ross Kennedy.
Supporters
also received the “own and loan” playing shirts that they had sponsored during
the season and were able to take photos with their favourite players.
