We are proud to announce the introduction of new Player of the Match trophies for every age group, celebrating the spirit of the game beyond just goals and glory. Starting this season, coaches will award a trophy each week to a standout player from their team, recognising not only skill but also effort, improvement, communication, and teamwork. Whether it’s a crucial save, a solid defensive performance, or simply giving 100% on the pitch, every player now has the chance to be recognised for their contribution.

The trophies will be handed out after each game and returned the following week, ready to be passed on to the next deserving recipient. Weekly winners will be showcased on the club’s website, giving players and families a chance to celebrate their achievements. At the end of the season, those who have earned the most Player of the Match awards may even receive a special prize, adding an extra layer of excitement and motivation. Hewenden Juniors continues to champion inclusivity and development, ensuring every child feels valued and inspired to give their best.
