George Ford was last night named LV= Young Player of the Year at the RPA Computacenter Players’ Awards 2014.
In a category full of top-class individuals – including teammate Anthony Watson and Saracens’ Billy Vunipola – the 21-year-old was recognised for his unswerving performances at the helm of Bath Rugby’s 2013/14 campaign.
An IRB Young Player of the Year in 2011, Ford collected his second trophy in less than a week, following last Thursday’s Golden Boot at the Premiership Rugby awards. He was also shortlisted for the Players’ Player of the Year award at last night's ceremony, which took place in Battersea Evolution.
