2003/04 Player of the Year Awards

Raymond Campbell ended the season as a double award winner on Saturday night as he picked up two player of the year trophies at the players' gathering in the Sports Club.

In the absence of an official award, veteran midfielder Campbell was the choice in a poll of Ards fans over the weekend and he received a trophy on behalf of the Sports Club from Maureen Black, wife of former Ards chairman Harold.

Raymond then went on to win the Player's Player of the Year award and he received that prize from manager Shane Reddish. Campbell paid tribute to his teammates, calling them the most talented squad he had ever played with.

Earlier defender Sean Cleary had picked up Allan McLachlan's Young Player of the Year trophy in light of the progress he has made at Ards over the last two seasons.
