Cornwall FA announces county shortlist for 2023 Grassroots Football Awards

The final three for each category were announced to the public over the weekend.

Cornwall FA is delighted to recognise the heroes who help our grassroots game to thrive.

This year saw a huge number of nominations across the board and we are really proud of all of the volunteers who give their time to Cornish football. We are grateful to one and all - thank you! Unfortunately only three candidates could make the shortlist in each category and our independent panel had the difficult job of selecting just three.

All of the nominees below are highly commended and have now been invited to the Cornwall FA awards night to take place in September. Congratulations!
