Fletcher Premier B’s Best

Hampton Rovers midfielder Leigh Fletcher won the VAFA Premier B Section Best & Fairest at Monday’s VAFA Awards Night at the Forum Theatre.

Fletcher was runner-up in the 2009 B Section best & fairest and was fourth in C Section in 2008. Leigh has enjoyed another great season with the Rovers and continues to be a consistent performer for the team. In this year’s count, he finished on 18 votes, two ahead of joint runner-ups Tony Brown from Old Haileybury and Julian Rowe from Old Carey.

It was an outstanding achievement by Fletcher and he is the first Rovers player to win a senior league best & fairest award since Stephen Anderson in 2000. He’s also the first Rovers player to win a league B&F in B Section and is the highest division winner since Merv Davidson won the A Section highest individual award in 1954. The only other Rovers player to win one in A Section was Sam Birtles in 1949.

The 2010 Hampton Rovers Presentation Night will be held this Saturday night at the Sandringham Football Club. Last minute bookings are now being taken. Click Here for details.
