For a youth cricketer who displays an excellent attitude on and off the field for fair play, a team player who inspires the spirit of cricket and has good work ethics:

Taine Cordell-Hull – South Canterbury U17 captain, TBHS 1^st XI captain, SC Emerging Players member, Groundsman. A fine young man and leader of men who has been thrust into leadership roles, often ahead of time and taken these jobs on always with a smile. Leads an inspired group of young cricketers by example and is pivotal to their growth as a group.

To Player/Umpire/Administrator who contributes most on or off the field::

Karyn and Andrew Booth – this “cricketing couple” have been hugely influential in growing junior cricket again in Waimate. One or both of them can usually be found on Fridays at “Intro to Cricket” sessions, training nights, Saturday matches and in their spare time organizing the club matches, functions, on the committee and helping with planning. They were also roped in to look after, coach and manage a Year 7 Invitation team that was rushed into the Central South Island tournament in January and nothing was a bother. A deserving couple we hope to see for a few more years yet!
