The club would like to thank all those who attended the presentation evening. It was a good way to finish the season off with over 60 players, management, sponsors and supporters there to celebrate the season, which the biggest triumph was winning the Blacklands Finance Challenge Cup, which was on display. The winners of the club trophies on the night were, Josh Preece, who won the coverted 1st team Players' Player award and the Supporters Award. Kevin Lock won the Managers Award after a superb first season with the club. Joe Lyons took home the 2nd team Players' Player Award for the 2nd year running, whilst goalkeeper Steve Cook won the Managers Award. Linda Lee won Clubman of the Year, for her support and help on match days making the teas and coffees at Polegate Rec. The club also handed out the Fantasy Football prize money to the winners and runners up, along with the popular certificates, celebrating the good, bad and bizarre moments throughout the season. The club would also like to thank the River Boys for the excellent music played after the meal, and the Chatsworth Hotel, who provided an quality 3-course meal which everyone enjoyed. There have been various photos from the evening added to the photo gallery, click here to view the PTFC Gallery.
