FAW Awards 2019: David Brooks steals the show as full list of winners are revealed

Jess Fishlock and David Brooks both scooped Player of the Year prizes at the annual FAW Awards ceremony last night.

At a star-studded event hosted by Gabby Logan at Hensol Castle, Bournemouth star Brooks landed the prize for the men's side while Fishlock - currently on loan at Lyon from Seattle Reign - took the gong for Jayne Ludlow's Women's side.

It proved to be a memorable night for Brooks who also took the Young Player of the Year award following his successful transition from the Under-21 side to the senior team.

Everton forward Elise Hughes, whose performances have been pivotal at intermediate and senior level, also earned the accolade of Young Player of the Year.

Chelsea's Sophie Ingle - captain of the Women's side - and Real Madrid star Gareth Bale won the Players’ Player of the Year awards.

The Media Choice Award this year went to Ben Davies and John Toshack was handed the Special Award for his lifetime achievement in Welsh football.

The full list of FAW Award winners are detailed below:
