1. ZACK NATHAN (NL Galaxy) - "been great in goal, helping us play out from the back with his excellent distribution and shot-stopping has also been superb. Kept us in a couple games and really excelled this year"
2. DARYL RUBIN (Fairlop FC) - "An absolute Rolls Royce of a defender. Glides through games and like last year, was excellent throughout"
3. JAMIE MURRAY (NL Galaxy) - "absolutely fantastic all year, never at fault for a goal and a good few assists from bombing up and down. Mr Consistent"
4. ADAM GOLD (Jewdinese) - "He is the glue who holds it all together. The man who ensures that there are no stupid slip-ups against inferior opposition. The captain led by example every game, was extremely consistent in his performances, made some vital tackles and clearances and is a key reason behind our good defensive record." Nominated by several rival teams in the division
5. DAN ANDREWS (Redbridge JC A) - "nicknamed 'Lurch' by his fellow players. Andrews has been a very important figure and captain this season. He has lead the defence impressively, and ensured RJC A kept their unbeaten throughout the league campaign. Has put in countless strong tackles this season and very much deserves his league-winning medal". Also nominated by Fairlop.
6. JAMES BERKLEY (Redbridge JC A) - "RJC’s Moussa Dembele - James has had an above average year. James is a fantastic dribbler of the ball, and has shown this week after week. Has scored a good amount of goals for a CM and is still improving"
7. NATE KASHKET (Redbridge JC A) - "what a season this 21-year-old has had". He is "by far the best technical player in the MGBFSL Division One," according to boss Sam Rank. "Nate has improved in leaps and bounds this season. Nate is still so young, and now reached his potential. He will keep on learning and will no doubt make himself a big name in Premier Division next season"
8. BILLY LEE (Jewdinese) - "Didn’t stop running in every game he played. Carried our attack at times, again another player who led by example. His quality on the ball shone through and was also solid defensively"
9. BRADLEY GAYER (Fairlop FC) - "Not as influential as last season," according to manager Aaron Dias, "but easily remains the best player in any level of Jewish football. Still managed six goals and eight assists and had his own Goal of the Season competition during the second half of the campaign – including stunning efforts against NL Galaxy and Oakwood."
10. ARON GALE (NL Raiders) - "11 goals this season for a kid who keeps getting better and better. Always a threat in front of goal and a constant nightmare for defenders"
11. JAMES JACONELLI (Fairlop FC) - "One of the most lethal finishers in the MGBSFL on his day. His stand-out performance came in the 5-3 victory over North London Raiders, a day when he bagged four of his 14 goals this term". Another player nominated by more than one team
