Gold Coast Blue Tongues management, players and supporters gathered at the Benowa Tavern on September 1 to celebrate a successful season of Blue Tongues hockey at the annual Awards night.

Brad Smulders won the award for Most Valuable Player (MVP) after putting up huge numbers to set a team and league record of 77 points (35G 44A).

The Best Local Player award was shared between Jon Bale (7G 4A) and team Captain Ross "Rosco" Howell (3G 6A).  Jon stepped up his game this season and excelled at all areas of his game, including special teams.  Rosco, a natural defenseman played the season switching between the forward and defense positions, and excelled at his game no matter what position he played.  A true leader of the team, Rosco played in the semi-final game against the North Stars with an injured ankle, playing through pain to help the team.

Cam Trew (1G 4A) was voted the Most Improved player this season.  While not a player who puts up big numbers, Cam could always be counted on to block shots, jam the passing lanes and win puck battles in the corners.  The team sees nothing but improvement in Cam's game in the coming seasons.

In a show of support to the fans, Craig "Bluey" Duncan was voted fan favorite.  Bluey traveled with the team on almost all road games and was always there to help cheer the team on, win or lose.  The team would like to thank Bluey, and all other Tongues fans for their support this season.

Dave Emblem (General Manager) and Kevin Sands (Head Coach) also thanked the rest of the team, volunteers, announcers and all others who helped during the season.

The Blue Tongues are dedicated to building a solid team for the future and look forward to a successful 2010 AIHL campaign.  Off ice training is set to begin in late 2009.
