      “There are thousands  of people  out there like me and  it
      could have been any one of us up here today,” he said. The
      recognition is great but I don’t do it for any recognition, I
      do it for the love of the club. It is very much my extended
      family more than anything else and it has that community
      feel. A lot of these awards are obvious because they rely
      on  playing  outcomes but  actually  this  one  is  for all  the
      volunteers out there because without them, at this  level,
      football doesn’t work.”
      One  of Page’s key  contributions  to the club  has  been as
      a photographer, capturing  some stunning  images  as City
      finished the season in ninth in Vanarama National League South.
      “I  am  involved  in  everything  from  signing  players’  contracts  to  filling  out  reports  of  games  to
      meeting with the safety advisory group and local council and making sure the ground is fit for
      purpose,”  he  added.  “The  only  thing  I  have  done  differently  this  season  is  taken  up  the  club
      secretary role full-time along with all the other bits and pieces so now I give up almost all of my
      spare time doing something or other football-related.”
      Buildbase National Game Awards: The Non-League Paper Lifetime Achievement
      award – Ray Lewis
      Former referee Ray Lewis has witnessed things that most football fans would struggle to imagine –
      and his efforts have now been recognised with The NLP Lifetime Achievement award. The 75-year-
      old, from Great Bookham, collected his award at The National Game Awards after becoming a
      Football League official more than 50 years ago. During his career he reached the dizzying heights
      of refereeing the first FA Cup semi-final to be held at Wembley and awarded the free-kick from
      which Paul Gascoigne scored one of the most memorable goals in the competition’s history as
      eventual winners Tottenham Hotspur beat Arsenal.
