Black Panthers awards and party night

Black Panthers had their end of year party on Saturday after the game with the Wazee. Before we got down to the 'serious' stuff, awards for the 2009 achievers were given out. The Black Panthers' patron, Foxy Ojambo, was on hand to present the awards.

For the second year running, Claire Anena received the Miss Black Panthers award. NO, we did not hold a beauty pageant. Miss Black Panthers is awarded to the person who gives her all to the club both on and off the pitch. 17 year old Regina scooped the 7's player of the year award while Beatrice Atim beat off competition from Brenda Kayiyi and Emmannuela Oroma to bag the 15's player of the year award. Emma Oroma got the Special Award: a trophy that goes to a player who stood out on pitch but was unlucky to miss out on the awards. Brenda Kayiyi deservedly got the Black Panthers player of the year award for the second year in a row.

Foxy handed over a new set of jerseys to the team captain, Prossy Nakakande with a promise to keep supporting the team.

With the unserious business done, we got down to the real purpose of the night: drinking and dancing until the wee hours of the morning.
