Super League captain Bethan Dyke was a double winner as Team Bath Netball celebrated the 2024 campaign across all age groups at their end-of-season awards evening.
Wales international Dyke, who had been awarded with the Fans’ Most Valuable Player Award at the previous night’s All-Star Match, was also her team-mates’ choice as Players’ Player of the Year.
Vitality Roses defender Tash Pavelin was Coaches’ Player and Kirsty Harris received the Spirit of Bath Award during the presentation at the Apex City of Bath Hotel.
Dyke received almost a third of the 1,260 votes cast for Fans’ MVP and said, after receiving her award from long-term season ticket holder Laura Snook: “I am really honoured to win and I was not expecting that at all, it was a massive shock. I think it’s the best award to win – the fans have shown up every week and been incredible for us this year.”
