You nominated Ian Watson for the Frank Arico Trophy

Ian is the well deserved winner of this award. He goes above and beyond his role of Club Captain, leading SEPL players and representing RRPC’s voice in SEPL. Here are just a few reasons why you nominated him:

  • Ian is one of the few players that knows virtually all members of RRPC. From those first applying to RRPC, through social sessions, training sessions, intermediate sessions to serious league/competitive players. 
  • In addition to leading 2 weekly sessions, he regularly provides coaching and runs introductory sessions for non-members.
  • Ian has listened to members and has been instrumental in getting club sessions/payment processes changed.
  • Ian has had significant involvement in activities like the 10 year anniversary celebration, organising club holidays and encouraging players to take part in the English Open.
  • Whilst managing so many moving parts Ian remains a very likeable and respected person.
