It was glitz and glamour for Wisbech Town Hockey Club at their annual awards night.
The event took place at Skelton Hall at Wisbech Grammar School and saw talented individuals pick up awards for their hard work.
Two of the students who showed a natural talent and had never picked up a stick before were Joshua Watson and Oliwia Bolka.
Both were recipients of awards for their improvements.
The biggest round of applause went to the ladies third team, who after a couple of difficult seasons rebuilding, proudly announced they were the most successful team across the whole club this season.
Kim Speed, from the club, said: "The evening is always a great way to end the season but it's also an opportunity to present awards to the superb talent the club has within it.
"Since June 2018 in conjunction with England Hockey and Hockey Futures WTHC has been out in the community delivering coaching to both Peckover School and Thomas Clarkson Academy.
