Ulster and Ireland winger Craig Gilroy has collected his Bank of Ireland Player of the Season Award.
Young Ulster fan, Luke Jervis, presented Craig with vouchers after a team training session at Kingspan Stadium.
His mum had voted in the online poll and was randomly selected from the more than 600 fans who took part to come and meet Craig. She however, gave the honour of presenting the coveted award to Luke who plays club rugby in Belfast!
At the presentation he got the chance to chat with Craig and some of the other players about last season and the campaign ahead.
The Ulster coaches nominated Rory Best, Darren Cave and Gilroy for the award and the Ulster and Ireland winger polled just under half of the 600 votes cast.
The award comes after a season in which the winger finished joint top of the PRO12 try scoring charts with 11 tries. He also won the PRO12 try of the Year award for his try against Scarlets in February.
Bank of Ireland ran a monthly competition throughout the season for 'player of the month' and the winners included Cave, Rob Herring, Stuart McCloskey and Stuart Olding.
Thanks to everyone who voted!
