Award for Georgie Poynton

Meath's Georgie Poynton was amongst the winners at the Three FAI International Football Awards which took place in RTE Studios on Sunday evening with 21 awards presented.

From Bettystown, Poynton is currently on loan with Bohemiam FC (from Dundalk) but he featured for the Louth club prominently last season and also made an impact on the international stage.

Last night's ceremony celebrated all aspects of Irish football from the past twelve months, with players from the FAI Football For All programme right up to the senior men's team honoured.

Robbie Brady was a big winner on the night, scooping the Senior International Player of the Year, Young International Player of the Year, and 'Three' International Goal of the Year - the first time that one player has picked up three awards at the ceremony.
