Retiring St Agnes AFC referee's assistant (Linesman) Ian Baxter received top marks from officials of the Jolly's Cornwall Combination League, and is photographed being awarded with the Whitford Trophy by Combination League Chairman Vidal James.
Ian and his lovely wife Mary have been stalwarts of the club since joining them several years ago and, whilst Ian has decided to hang up his line running boots and put down his flag, they will continue to valuable supporters.
Club Chairman Mandy Kimmins said, "Ian has been a fabulous official, fair, reliable and efficient in every way! He has featured high in the referees points every year and it is completely fitting that he received the top accolade in his last season! During his time with us Ian bravely and successfully battled cancer and returned to his duties in even better form than before. We have been very lucky to have him and I will certainly miss seeing his knees running up and down the line at Enys Parc!"
Ian has left a big hole to fill in his role as referee's assistant and St Agnes AFC would be delighted to hear from anyone interested in joining the club in this capacity, courses would be provided if necessary. Please contact Mandy Kimmins on 07974 370666.
