Pembrokeshire League presents long-service awards to Royston and Bob
Two long serving administrators were deservedly recognised at the Pembrokeshire Football League Association's Annual General Meeting held at the British Legion Club in Milford Haven.
Firstly, Bob Waygood has retired as Secretary of the West Wales Football Association after 33 years and was humbled at an official presentation held by the league.
Shortly after the presentation Waygood said: "I want to thank everyone connected in football circles for their extremely kind words. I've always enjoyed visiting Pembrokeshire and I have always felt really appreciated."
Secondly, Waygood then made a special presentation to Royston Holman, for serving as an administrator within county football for 40 years.
40 years service recognised
Eighty-year-old Holman has been an administrator with Milford Athletic and has held positions of Chairman, President and Life-Member on the League Council. He has also served on the committee of the West Wales Football Association for five years.
"I've enjoyed my time serving on the committee. Football has been my life and I've made a lot of good friends over the years," said an emotional Holman.
Phil is Chairman
Colin Williams has stood down, as Phil Devonald will replace Chairman after a mandatory two-year period. David Olyott takes over Devonald's position, as Vice-Chairman and the only other shuffle on the League Council was Roger Wood taking over the reigns as President after vastly experienced Keith Scourfield has retired.
Peter Cole, Steve Briers, Ceri Morgan and Rowena Lloyd were voted on block by the floor as elected members of the League Council.
The top award for the team with the best discipline record last season was awarded to Clarbeston Road; the club receiving £500 and a match ball. Second and receiving £250 and a match ball was St Ishmaels plus Kilgetty, Lawrenny, St Florence, West Dragons and Tenby all received a match ball for their good conduct.
