There have been some outstanding performances by Bournemouth Rugby Club this season, and Lions’ supporters have the chance to nominate their player of the year.
Nationwide publication The Rugby Paper is looking for nominees from the Regional Premier Divisions downwards.
In the South West Premier reliable Chapel Gate centre Scott Chislett has been an important cog in the midfield for the runaway champions leading the defence and creating opportunities aplenty.
Versatile front rower - and at times back rower - Alan Manning has also played every game in their title-winning campaign.
He missed only ten minutes when the coaches decided to replace him and he is still annoyed about it.
Both players are just two examples worthy of recognition among a talented group of personnel who helped Will Croker’s side win promotion this season.
The award is sponsored by Field turf - the most trusted brand in the industry when it comes to artificial turf.
The winners will be decided by your votes and will be honoured at a star studded lunch at the Twickenham Stoop on Wednesday, May 29.
Along with the rest of the nominees for the awards, they will be considered by judges including columnists and former internationals Jeremy Guscott and Jeff Probyn plus the publication’s writers Nick Cain and Peter Jackson with the poll staying open until May 10.
How to Vote – Make your choice(s) and email them to awards@therugbypaper.co.uk or post to Awards, The Rugby Paper, Tuition House, St Georges Road, Wimbledon, SW19 3EU.
