On Friday 15th September 2023, Derbyshire FA celebrated their annual Grassroots Football Awards ceremony at Pride Park Stadium.

The event, sponsored by Cawarden, was bigger than ever and saw 11 deserved winners from all corners of Derbyshire be recognised and celebrated. On the night, a video was shown on the screen for each award winner, and you can now view them below. A big thank you for Alexandra Johnson Photography who helped shoot the videos.
