LEDBURY Swifts' under-15 side have received the FA Fair Play Award for Herefordshire after being nominated by the county FA.
Each county FA in England chooses one side from their affiliated youth teams based on the team's performance in 'fair play' over the season.
The criteria includes understanding and respect for the laws of the game, the belief that the game should be played in an entertaining and positive way, plus the on and off-field behaviour of players, officials and spectators.
Team disciplinary records, average number of goals scored, hospitality to visiting sides and attitude of parents are also considered.
As winners the Swifts have received a full England playing strip from Umbro International and the FA.
