The club held its annual presentation evening at the Jubilee Hall two weeks ago at which presentations were made to the out-going First XI management team as a token of the club's appreciation for their superb achievements in leading the club back into the Premier Division of the Anglian Combination.

Winners: Richard Durrant (First XI Manager's Player of the Season, First XI Players' Player of the season and also the Brian Sadler Shield for Supporters' Player of the Year).

Reserve XI Players' Player of the Year and the inaugural winner of the Critic's Corner Trophy went to Daniel Crisp whilst Richard Way picked up the Reserve XI Manager's Player of

the Year.

Alex Brown won the Matthew Green Memorial Award for leading Reserve XI goalscorer. Paul Stebbings picked up the A-team Players' Player and Mark Lovick the Manager's Player of the

Year awards.

Young Player of the Year was Chris Andersen whilst Simon Key deservedly picked up the Kevin Sayer Clubman of the Year award. A-team stalwart Keith Todd picked up the Bryan Thurlow Award for his commitment and dedication to the A team.

The annual meeting of Loddon FC will take place on Thursday June 17 at The Angel at 8pm.

This is a change to the previously notified date as the original date clashed with England's second game in the World Cup.
