The Pittsworth-Milmerran Power has won the inaugural AFL Darling Downs Juniors Club of the Year award, announced at Saturday night’s league awards night.
The AFLDDJ Club of the Year Award was established in 2012 to try and improve club administration across the 10 junior clubs, as well as encourage them to strive for off-field excellence.
AFLDD Club Coordinator, Christopher Davis says "clubs which have a strong off-field environment are generally more successful on-field but are also more enjoyable places to play, watch and be involved in footy."
"Clubs which take a moment to think about their processes eventually see the benefit in more ways than one".
The club has grown by a third this year, bringing their player numbers up to near record levels and have a good base of kids starting the game new in the Under 8 age group.
The club narrowly won the award ahead of the Toowoomba East Stingers, with the Warwick Redbacks well back in third position.
