Recognition for Kidsgrove coach

Kidsgrove Athletic under 18's head coach Mark Swift has won the Grassroots Coach of the year award for 2020.

His under 18's side competed in both the Sporting Touch Midland Premier League and the Midland Floodlight League last season and, in both divisions, Swift's team had performed admirably considering the level that they were playing at.

Upon the announcement of the personal triumph, Swift said “It is nice to get that bit of recognition for the hard work that everybody puts in.

"It is everybody really, but with me fronting the team I got the award and, it came as a complete surprise last night."
