Hatty represents the best of grassroots football

Hatty receiving his award from Kate McDowell.

Paul Hatton, known to many of us as ‘Hatty’, was awarded the Grassroots Bobby Moore Award at the Isle of Man FA Grassroots Football Awards 2023-24.

The Bobby Moore Award is a new award for the Isle of Man FA.

The nomination criteria asked: Who’s been truly exceptional? This extra-special award is for the volunteer that represents the best of grassroots football.

Isle of Man FA says that Hatty fits the bill and has done for many years. 

The association said: ‘From reporting, to filming, to photographing, to gathering stats, he is reliable and works tirelessly to meet deadlines and make sure all your individual and team achievements are given credit.’
