JUST under 100 people attended the Tavistock Specials Football Club presentation night at the Red and Black Club.

Celebrating nine years since the club first formed the evening was a great success.

Club co-founder Allen Lewis told the Times: ‘With the club boasting five teams now registered with the Devon FA and entered in the Devon Ability Counts leagues it was a great night with loads of laughs and thank yous.’

Awards for most Improved player, coaches’ player, players’ player and clubman were handed out as well as an Oscar acting award for diving which went to Jake Ridolls the first original member.

Allen added: ‘A massive thank you to Tavistock Tyres who have sponsored the club since forming and the original spark with the Son-Rise story. We have a brilliant group of people. We now have six weeks off before training starts again on September 8. a week before the leagues kick off again at Coach Road, Newton Abbot.

‘Again well done to the clubs members, coaches, parents, supporters, carers, sponsors and the dedicated trustees and Tavistock Community Sports centre.

Have a good break, all of you!’
