Voting is open to anyone who has been involved in our Saturday matches this season in any capacity.
Both awards require you to vote for your top 3: your 1st nomination gets 10 points, 2nd gets 5 points and 3rd gets 3 points (and you can't vote for yourself!).
Please see below for more details on PPOTS and Clubman and let me have your votes by the end of Saturday 3rd June. Please text/dm your votes in rather than posting on our group: we'll aim to keep an element of 'secret ballot' to this. Many thanks.
Players' Player of the Season
Fairly self explanatory: the club's best player this season! Not most improved, simply the player who has been the most impressive and is more responsible than most for helping Gold Hill play well and gain positive results. Apart from just ability you may want to consider aspects like influence and leadership.
Recent previous winners include:
18/19 James Clarke
20/21 Ryan McDonald
21/22 Vinnie O'Hara
(no awards in 19/20 as our season was curtailed early due to covid-19)

If you need some data to aid your decision then why not take a look through the league website (or our club site) to remind yourself of our games this season:

This award is for an unsung hero of our season. For them there is no 'i' in team, they are selfless rather than selfish. They might give of their time and effort to help run the club - or be especially committed/enthusiastic in their attendance/participation. Perhaps they help encourage and motivate others and play a role in the Gold Hill team spirit. In my opinion I don't think the manager should be eligible for this one as the involvement is part of the job description, so please don't vote for me here or that vote won't be counted!
Recent previous winners include:
18/19 Rob Sallis
20/21 George Baker
21/22 George Baker
As this award seeks to reward commitment to the club, which can easily go unseen or unnoticed, here are a few ideas of contributions that you may wish to consider (but of course that doesn't mean you can't vote for anyone else ... this is not a shortlist to choose from, just some ideas):
Craig Bennett, Stuart Laws, Vinnie O'Hara, Jason Brownhill, George Baker and David Angell clocked up the most match appearances for us in the 22/23 season.
George Baker has again carried out the vital role of keeping tabs on people's finances for us.
And many others have contributed so much to our club so thank you all for being involved this season!
Happy voting!
Pete.
