Groundsman in the county play such a huge role in making sure football can be played and put in countless hours of their volunteer time, so it would be great to have lots of nominations.

An annual occurrence, the County FA presents this award to volunteers who dedicate their all to ensuring their club has the best possible playing surface all year round despite troubling weather conditions. This applies to clubs at Step 7 and below only.

Each County FA will be collating nominations over the next month and will then submit their top 3 applications to The FA, for independent judging as part of The FA National Awards.

Several outstanding local groundsmen have picked up this award over the years. Last year, Neville Cooper of Eaton Socon FC was named winner.
