Everyone enjoyed the night hugely and the the only dissapointment was the end of the music and the night. The Soiree was held out in the open and was well attended with over 100 people enjoying the summer evening, the company and the wine. The club 2009/10 season's trophies on the night were awarded as follows:

1st XV player of the year - Dave Sia
2nd XV player of the year - Matt Milner
3rd XV player of the year - Austin Vickers
Top try scorer - Kev McNally
Best young player of the year - Philip Jones

Most improved player of the year - Glen Smith
Best Newcomer of the year - James Quigley
Club captains award - Luke O'Shea
Clubman of the year - Peter Knott

The success of the evening was down to everyone that attended, but a special thanks must be said to Douglas Flower, Anne and Paul Edwards who organised the evening, Julian Norton and Bryan Whicher for the superb steak and lobster meal, David Cebreiro for his tireless efforts in making sure the club house looked its best, Richard Cebreiro, Marcus Edwards and Sean O'Reilly for setting up on the day and helping to take the marqees down the following day, and lastly Mal, Michelle and Charlotte Sharp for looking after the bar, making sure everyone was well watered and helping to get everything back into the club before we all went home.

Many people on the night stated "This is probably the best end of season dinner we've ever had..." which just goes to show how many members and guests enjoyed the night. Based on the response of the soiree, the 2010/11 End of Season dinner and Awards Night will have the same venue and format, and we are sure will be as much of a success.
