The Shanks Jack Award

Season 2006 - 07

Awarded to: D. McKenzie Jnr

Shanks Jack:

"Shanks Jack, attained the rank of class 2 referee in the late 1960's allowing him to officiate as referee in senior reserve football. A few years later, Shanks' business commitments necessitated a move to England and on his resignation from the association, he donated this trophy to be awarded originally to a suitable class 2 official who otherwise may have received little or no recognition. After a major restructuring of referees classes, by the SFA, resulting in the subsequent erosion of the original award criteria, Shanks agreed that the trophy be presented to a suitable member, who during the previous season, had officiated in a National Association Cup Final."

Awarded to a member who officiates at any other national or regional cup final.

This award is voted upon by the Executive Committee.
