The Quebec Junior Football League held its annual awards banquet to recognize excellence among its players and coaches and to formally close a remarkable 2016 season that saw the South Shore Jr. Bruizers winning their first championship after a perfect 10-0 campaign and a new Montreal Royals team making it all the way to the championship final and nearly pulling off a great upset.
The 35th annual event took place at Le Boulevard Restaurant in Valleyfield, Quebec with about 200 persons in attendance including players, coaches, volunteers, league officials and invited guests.
Overall, 83 players were nominated for awards in 15 different categories and 34 players received trophies. In addition, six different educational bursaries were presented, including one from a new sponsor of the league, the Hitachi Corporation.
