Best & Fairest Simon McCormick and runner-up Kym Cobb.

Runner-up Kym Cobb also received a standing ovation for his final season of football, and what a season it was! Talked out of retirement by Salievic at the end of 2010, "Cobby" enjoyed the opportunity to play a bigger role in the midfield and forward lines. In his emotional speech he lamented the heartbreak of the one point Grand Final loss that will forever burn deep, but challenged the next generation of Blackwood youngsters to "step up" and become the new force.

In the Club Awards, the Watchman Tophy for service to the club was deservedly awarded to John Sidebottom. The Peter Roberts Award for services to B grade and below was awarded to Dan Gunn. The Les Gillard Supporter of the year was presented to Jo Plummer. And it was with great pleasure that the club was able to announce that , apart from a few post grand final "shinannigins", nobody was found to be a fitting recipient of the "Golden Shovel Award"!
