Claremont Colts midfielder Tom Ledger was honoured last night as the overall winner of the Colts fairest and best Jack Clarke Medal, which was presented during an AAMI WAFL Colts dinner presentation at Subiaco Oval.
The agile, high endurance midfielder, who positions himself well and finds a lot of the football, polled 36 votes to win the award ahead of Peel Thunder’s Joel Beasley on 34 votes, and East Perth’s Ryan Maldenis and Swan’s Adam Faulkner on 33 votes each.
Ledger, who also possesses quality decision making skills, is renowned for his terrific work ethic and is greatly respected and liked by his team mates.
Ledger has played all season with Claremont Colts and was also a member of the 2010 WA 18’s State Academy, playing in the NAB AFL National 18s Championship.
“I have had one of my most rewarding football seasons and I am confident that all the hard work during preseason finally paid off. The most exciting part of this year’s season is still to come, playing in the AAMI WAFL Colts Final Series,” Ledger said.
