North Coast Australian Football League - Jim Woodlock Medal

Jim Woodlock Medal

In 2004 a medal was struck to honour the many years of service Jim Woodlock gave to the league as an administrator. The Jim Woodlock Medal was to be awarded to the player judged as the best player on the ground in a senior grand final. The first year the medal was awarded, North Coffs midfielder Greg Jarman edged out teammate Brad Giri for the award. Teenager Jack Gillingham became the first player to be awarded two Jim Woodlock Medals when he won the coveted award in 2009 and 2010 when Sawtell-Toormina comfortably won the grand final. At the end of the 2012 season, no player from a losing grand final team had won the award.
