Yorkshire Junior League Presentation Awards
07.06.09
The 35th Anniversary and Presentation awards for the 2008/09 season took place at the Cedar Court Hotel Wakefield on Sunday 7th June. The day was well represented by the Yorkshire Junior Clubs along with guests from past and present, it was nice to see some of the people who first put the league together some 35 years ago,Alf Tattersfield, Dougie Hird, John Seymour and through the years a previous Secretary Douglas Eastwood along with ever present Maurice Oldroyd and Andy Harland, Martin Flynn and Kelly Barrett from the RFL. Our sponsors over the last 35 years - FAM - were represented by our friend and supporter of the League Trevor Rodwell.
The U12s to U15s League winners were presented to the clubs by Trevor Rodwell and the Challenge and Continuation Cups were presented to the winners by Kelly Barrett. Finally the Bronze Boot Award was presented. This year we have had more nominations than ever and rightly so and it made it very difficult for us to select the winner bur after some deliberation the winner for 2008/09 went to Colin Cooper of Hunslet Parkside.
Stanley Rangers were awarded with League Shields for the Under 12s Divsion One, Under 13s Division 1 and Under 14s Division 3 - a fantastic achievement.
