Beverley Braves under nines rounded off a successful season with a presentation at Hodgsons in Beverley.
All the boys received a trophy presented by Hull Kingston Rovers new boy Graeme
Horne with further special awards handed out as follows: –
Man of Steel – For the first time this was a tie, the top player award shared between William Wallis for his try scoring exploits in particular and Ethan Rowbotham who was solid in defence all season.
Player’s player was Marcus Walker with Oliver Loney and Lewis Egan wining the second and third player’s player awards. Most improved player went to Joseph Dennis.
The voting was very close this year and there were several players who can consider themselves unlucky not to receive recognition. What is clear however is that the team looks to have a bright future and is already looking towards the new season.
