Scottish Hockey CEO, Barry Cawte, said, “It was a great night at the awards, and an excellent way to celebrate the amazing people across the whole sport who really help make the hockey community what it is. Bringing back the awards was something we were really excited to do, and to bring it back in such an exciting format was brilliant. It was amazing to see everyone enjoy themselves so much.

“Of course we congratulate all of the winners, but everyone involved should be proud of their achievements. The stories behind all the nominations are a true inspiration to us all.”

“It’s an important part of our vision to build on the fantastic relationships we have with our members, and partners, and there’s no better way to do this than through an annual awards event.”
