Cleobury claim top club prize

Shropshire was today celebrating a hat-trick of successes at the BBC Midlands Sports Personality of the Year awards. Cleobury Mortimer's remarkable run to Twickenham for rugby's Junior Vase final earned them the Amateur Club of the Year award at last night's ceremony in Birmingham.

Elsewhere, Mickey Bushell capped a fine year by being crowned Young Disabled Sportsperson.

The 16-year-old from Telford won gold in the 100m and two silvers in the 200m and 400m at the British Senior Championships.

He also won the boys wheelchair event at the London Marathon for the third time, and claimed a silver at the World Junior Championships.

And Oswestry's Val Hanover sealed the treble as she claimed the Unsung Hero award for her involvement in the North Shropshire Special Olympics.

Elsewhere, 13-times World Darts champion Phil Taylor won the BBC Midland Sports Personality of the Year award.
