Malcolm was presented with his award by BBC South Today's Sports presenter, Roger Johnson. From humble beginnings Milborne Sports Club is now recognised as one of the leading clubs in the region. The facility is renowned for being one of the best in Dorset not only for the hospitality that it extends but for the playing conditions that it provides. The surface of the pitch is one of the best in Dorset and such facilities enable scores of people to enjoy grass roots sport. Sports Club Committee spokesman, John Kane, writes: “It requires many spokes to strengthen a wheel but right at the hub of the wheel is our groundsman, Malcolm Applin, who at the age of 76 has been involved with football in Milborne for over thirty years, the last ten as a member of the Sports Club Committee. Malcolm sets a high standard in preparing his pitch and does all the jobs that an unsung hero is made of. We turn up for games, the boilers are on, the changing rooms are clean, the pitch is marked out, the grass is cut, the machinery for cutting the grass is maintained and all these jobs are done quietly by Malcolm.” Change of name for My Mate John Horticultural Society 1930–2009 THE AGM of the Society was held on Thursday 26th November A tribute by Keith Hustings where a vote was taken to change the name to the Milborne St.
