Champions Culter: Culter
clinched the Super League Championship for a remarkable 3rd consecutive
year with a resounding 6-0 win over Fraserburgh United at Crombie Park
on 13 May to spark scenes of sheer delight following the final whistle.
For good measure, Culter won 3-0 against runners-up Formartine United at
Pitmedden in our last league of the season to win the title 8 points
clear.
Annual Awards: The Dick Brown
Memorial Trophy, presented annually to the member who has done most for
the Club over the past season, was won by Assistant Team Manager Lee
O'Brien. He joined us as a player in 2001 and we were pleased to retain
his services in Team Management in which he has done a great job. Player
of the Year - Larry Barclay Trophy - was won by Kyle Scott. Kyle, in his
first season with Culter, was signed as a striker but reverted to
defence. He was outstanding in this role - a tower of strength
throughout our successful season.
Morrison Milestone: Senior
Committee Member, Gordon i4iorrison, completed 40 years service on
Culter FC’s Committee in June 2006. Gordon has given excellent services
over all these years and is still invaluable in his work as Lottery
Treasurer and with his words of wisdom at our Committee Meetings. Gordon
was a former Culter FC Player in the 1950s and served on the Committee
since 1966 in a variety of capacities including being Club President
from 1969/70 to 1976/77. He was surprised at our Season-end Social
Evening by being presented with a bottle of Gordon Highlanders Whisky.
Committee Changes: We were
disappointed at our Annual General Meeting - Then it was confirmed that
Vice President, Team Secretary and SJFA/ NRJFA Correspondent, Doug Grant
had resigned. Doug's expertise with team registrations was second to
none and his services will be so badly, missed. Doug joined Culter's
Committee at our AGM in June 1987 for the start of our Junior FA
membership. His service also included a spell as our Trainer (First
Aid). On the other hand, we welcomed forthcoming new Team Secretary
Kenny Henderson to the daunting task.
Middler Memorial: We were
pleased to welcome local lad Ronnie Middler to our Season-end Social.
Ronnie, who now resides in Spain, is one of our Honorary Vice Presidents
and also attended our AGM before which he presented us with a Memorial
Bench in memory of his wife, Margaret.
