Simeon Picks Up Award

"A room full of sporting stars" is how Paul Napier, Editor of the Yorkshire Evening Post described the annual Yorkshire Sports Awards held at Leeds Civic Hall on Monday evening.

And as if to prove a point, Celtic's own Simeon Bambrook picked up a Special Commendation as Player of the Year.

Simeon, accompanied by his wife Gail and mother and father , collected the award for the part he played in securing last season's promotion coming runner up to winner Rob Burrows.

Celtic were also commended as Team of the Year with Chairman Andy Firbank and President John Palmer collecting the award. Leeds Rhinos collected the Team of the Year award.
