SWAN Hill Soccer League capped off the most successful season in the club’s history with their presentation night recently – with men’s captain Cooper Fox dominating for the undefeated, three-time premiership team on the night.
Fox was unstoppable in the men’s best and fairest count, out-polling his nearest rival Santhosh Gunasekaran by an incredible 34 votes – while also picking up the most valuable player and player’s player awards. Conner Brown followed on from his Bendigo Amateur Soccer League Division 2 league best and fairest win by also securing the men’s club golden boot award to cap off a career best season for the striker.
Taylah Baird claimed the women’s best and fairest in the closest vote count of the night, the goalkeeper eventually securing victory by just two votes ahead of Amity Scott.
The under 16 team’s best and fairest was won by the talented Cal Croskery on 31 votes – 13 votes clear of runner-up Sonny Tucker.
