Our Awards Evening allows us to reward those individuals and give them a little bit of recognition for all they do; and the continued support from Chaplin Farrant will allow us to make this celebration even better than previous years.”

Mark Camidge, Director and Architect at Chaplin Farrant said: " We recognise that without the volunteers that commit thousands of hours to grassroots football across Norfolk every year, access to the sport for hundreds of teams would just not be possible. We are pleased to be able to continue our sponsorship of the awards eventing for a fourth year to help recognise and reward the people who make everything happen.”

“In addition, we are very excited to be able to provide the sponsorship for the U18 Representative Squad who have done so well over the previous year’s showcasing the talent in the county and we look forward to another successful cup run this season."
