The 22-year-old fitness trainer won the accolade at the Coca-Cola Combination’s gala awards night, attended by former England and Liverpool full-back Phil Neal, at the L’Horizon Hotel on Saturday.

Utility player Andrews, currently on holiday in Florida, beat Jersey Scottish colleague Dave Brodie and St Paul’s’ Craig Leitch to the award.

It was collected on his behalf by Scottish official Bill Wedgwood.

St Lawrence player manager David Fitton won the Division II award ahead of Mark Herridge (Jersey Nomads) and Matt Scriven (St Clement).

First Tower United’s Kerry Sauvage picked up the ladies’ award, from team-mate Serena Guthrie and Rozel Rovers’ Jo Jones, while Mark Le Cornu was named Referee of the Year, for the second time in three seasons.

The other nominees were Ian Solomon and Nick Parker.

A new award – the Jersey Football Referees’ Association Shield for an outstanding act of fair play – was presented by JFRA vice-president Le Cornu to St Paul’s’ Martin Cassidy.

The whistlers chose Cassidy for his sportsmanship in presenting his winning Le Tournois plaque to learning disabilities goalkeeper Martin Boléat at the beginning of last season.

Cassidy had been impressed by the ‘keeper’s heroics in the tournament so therefore he wanted to mark the occasion for Boléat by giving him his mementos.

Cassidy is to repeat his act by passing on his award, once more to Boléat.

On Andrews’ success, Scottish manager Bob Kearsey said: ‘Chris has achieved a lot in his first season at Scottish and everyone is delighted for him.

It’s great as a manager to have to players in the running for the award and Chris finished the season really well scoring winning goals against challengers Trinity and in the Upton against Guernsey Sylvans.

‘He has added extra pace to our team and he has a great attitude.

A hard working player for the team he has fitted in really well with the other lads.’ Combination president Tim Darwin introduced a host of guests before Allied Trading marketing representative Lynda Silk announced, to the delight of the near-150 gathering, that Coca-Cola will not only continue with their sponsorship next season, but also look to further raise the profile of the game.
