New faces making their mark in the Bob Brodie Trophy 2021-22 competition

One or two lesser-known names are there among the usual suspects in the leading positions for the Bob Brodie Trophy.

We say lesser-known, you can’t really put Louis Chapman in that category now after the amazing start he has made to the season for Caergybi, currently leading the Anglesey senior football goal scorers table on 18.

It is, however, the first time Louis has been prominent in the chart and it is great to see.

Another youngster who is shining this season is Jay Finter of Llanfairpwll.

‘Pwll’s performances have shown great improvement this term, and Jay is doing really well on eight goals so far. Well done Jay, keep it up.
