Going the extra mile

Club Awards & Honours Board

Our annual club awards celebrate all that’s great about Hammers and show our appreciation for the efforts and achievements of our members, both on and off the field.

CLUB AWARDS

Player of the Year
Awarded to a player for outstanding performance and commitment on the field of play. It is usually presented to a 1st XV player.

Clubman of the Year
This trophy is awarded to a person who embodies everything it is to be a Hammer, giving back to the club both on and off-the field.

Most Improved Player of the Year
Presented to a player who due to hard work and outstanding commitment, has shown commendable improvement in their game throughout the season.

Young Player of the Year
This award is presented to a player aged between 18 and 25 who has consistently achieved a high standard of rugby throughout the season.

Neil Baynham Award
Neil Baynham was a player with the club in 1982-83, who won his first and only ever trophy playing rugby for Hammersmith & Fulham at the Harrodian sevens. He was so pleased that he was selected and played that he got his father (who was in the pottery industry), to make a statue of a rugby player in Hammersmith & Fulham colours, which was then presented to the club as the Neil Baynham Award. The original statue trophy was unfortunately damaged by Tony Richards and has now been replaced. This award is given at the discretion of the management committee to someone who has made a major contribution to the club.

Walter Naylor Award
The brother of our first chairman Ed Naylor presented this award to the club in 1982 as appreciation for what the club had achieved in its first three years of existence. This award is generally presented to outgoing captains and committee members who have given outstanding service to the club.
