Bundoora’s Prince Singh now has a competition best and fairest medal to add to his premiership medal in the Diamond Valley Cricket Association.
Singh proved to be one of the recruits of the season, helping the Bulls to their first first XI premiership in more than 20 years, as they won the Money Shield.
At the association’s awards night, Singh was named the winner of the John Gleeson Medal for the best player in the Money Shield.
He polled 15 votes to win the medal.
Singh, who averaged 686 runs at an average of 62.36 throughout the season was also named wicketkeeper in the team of the year.
His Bundoora teammates Rubal Singh-Dillon and Shupinder Taggar were also named in the team of the year.
Bundoora United’s Joel Thompson was named captain of the team, while Bulldogs bowler Scott Barnett and Lalor Stars Joshua Nixon were also named in the team.
In the Barclay Shield, Diamond Creek’s Dan Gilbert won a second straight and third overall, Ray Christesen Medal as the best player in the top grade.
Epping’s Josh Henkel and Robert Tinsley were named in the team as reward for a strong season that helped the Pingers make a grand final.
More than a third of the players in the Mash Shield team of the year were from Mill Park.
Trent Groom, Adam McLaughlin, Mitch McAuley and Julian Marshall were all named in the team.
Groom was the runaway winner in the Duckworth-Turner Medal for the best player in that competition.
