Hawkins received his trophy at the Pools awards night at the Grand Hotel.

The award is named in memory of the gifted young Pools player, who died in October 2007.

That Hawkins clinched the shield was no surprise.

He did have stiff competition from Billy Paynter, Scott Fenwick, Nathan Thomas, Rakish Bingham Jake Gray, but the 23-year-old's goal was something special.
