Chilliwack FC handed out its awards for the 2019-20 soccer season, virtual style Tuesday night.

“We’re exceptionally proud of our award winners, and we’re sorry we couldn’t do this in person in a more formal format,” said CFC chairperson Andrea Laycock. “Hopefully next year we can.”

All of the award winners were announced in a video posted to the CFC Facebook page.

Jess MacFarlane was named the senior female player of the year with Cam Thomson named the senior male player of the year. Addison Croner was the junior female player of the year and Corwin Drew was the junior male player of the year.

The top goaltender award on the female side went to Jaime Van Schagen while Riley Fraser earned the honour on the male side.

Keith Hatten was named coach of the year, and CFC gave referee awards to Taylor Klassen (small side) and Christina Peet-Williams (full field).

“Congratulations to all the players who won an award tonight,” said CFC technical director/head coach Glenn Wilson. “You have obviously shown a level of ability and work ethic to stand above your teammates and allow your coaches to select you. I don’t know a coach out there that doesn’t have a difficult time doing that, but congratulations all the same.

“I’m sure as players that you’ll recognize the contributions that your teammates, coaches and parents had towards winning this award, and that’s something you’ll remember.”

The club also recognized most improved and most valuable players on 23 development teams.
