Alex Wakely’s good season in the one-day arena was rewarded with the Players’ Player of the Year (limited overs) sponsored by Steffan’s trophy and the Lynn Wilson Trophy for Academy Player of the year went to Ben Duckett.
The club’s media officer, Brendan Gilbert, was named as the Frank and Doris Spokes Clubman of the Year and Amy Gauvrit picked up the Northamptonshire Women’s Player of the Year honour.
The evening’s main honour, that of the Northants Cricket Player of the Year award, went to James Middlebrook who beat off competition from Willey.
