The Tony Poulton Memorial Club Spirit Award has been introduced to recognise someone who has consistently displays the qualties that Tony Poulton himself displayed: · Continually supporting the culture, ethics and morals of the Club over a number of years · Displaying enthusiasm and energy in supporting the Club · Working hard to find ways to better the Club · Delivering high quality and ongoing support · Being a proud member of the St Mary’s family This award sits apart from the Club Person of the Year, which by definition, is for someone who has worked hard and has gone over and above to support the Club during the season. The Club Spirit Award is to recognise ongoing support of the Club over a number of years whilst displaying the qualities mentioned above. About Tony: Tony joined our Club over 12 years ago as a player and a Coach. He was good at both, and played his last season with the O45s in 2016 (ok so 2016 wasn't his finest year on the park, and he got a lot of practice pulling the ball out of the back of the net, but he never gave up, and always gave his best - just like in life). We were fortunate to have him join the Committee over 10 years ago, and what a committee person he was! No-one will ever know the volume of work he put into the Club. Sure we all saw Tony fixing the grounds, putting together gear and equipment, doing his Club Secretary duties with aplomb, dragging bins around the field, and working hard on ensuring that all the behind the scenes paperwork and planning was always exemplentary. What a lot of people didn't see was his love of the Club, and the hours and hours he spent at the Club just to ensure that we were presented in the greatest light. He was honoured with Life Membership which was a very fitting and apt recognition of his work, and being the humble man that he was, he had tears of happiness when presented with this highest Club achievement. He was a friend to all who met him, and the greatest friend to us. We will miss you Tony, our friend. Years of Service |
