Goalkeeper: Tony Breeden (Leamington)

A clean sheet and Stott played his part in County winning.

Defence: Jordan Keane (Boston United)

Defence: Lee Vaughan (Kidderminster Harriers)
Strong in defence while also helping the Harriers push forward saw Vaughan stand out.

Striker: Marcus Dinanga (AFC Telford United)
Two goals from the loanee helped United stay up.
