Sabres VJBL Season Award Winners 2021

The SBA are pleased to finally release our award winners for the 2021 VJBL season. Even though we’ve had another COVID interrupted season, we managed to get enough VJBL games away earlier in the season to be able to recognise award winners for 2021.

Unfortunately for the second year in a row, our Sabres Presentation Day needed to be cancelled. We will be contacting team managers and parents about how to collect trophies once we are back inside the stadium.

Our awards announcement includes:
– Team MVPs and Coaches Awards for all of our Junior Sabres (voted on weekly by our Sabres coaches);
– Roger Morris Coaches of the Year Awards for our VC teams and our VJBL teams;
– Rob Lunardon Players of the Year Awards for our VC teams and our VJBL teams;
– Sabres Victorian Championship Referee of the Year 2021;
– Judy Barlow Volunteer Award 2021;

Our Player of the Year Awards are named for Sabres player Rob Lunardon who passed away tragically. More information on Rob’s story and the beginnings of the award can be found here:

We are also pleased to be able to continue with our “Sabres for Life” initiative which recognises players that have given at least seven years of consecutive service to the Sabres program. Players receive a commemorative hoodie and their photo on the Sabres for Life wall on court 1. We will be contacting award winners with details on how to collect once we are back inside the stadium.

Congratulations to all of our award winners!
