The Bill Stickles Cup

This trophy was introduced in 1979 in memory of a long playing member of the Avengers. It was always awarded to the side that scored the most goals, while undefeated teams had the honour of being listed in the programme the following year.

With the advent of ladies to the Festival in 2005 the committee felt that it was a good time to implement changes in the way that the Bill Stickles Cup was awarded. Therefore in 2005 it was decided that the Bill Stickles Cup would be awarded to the team who most embodied the idea of 'fair play'. This involved teams judging their opponents on the festival style of play and behaviour.

This was decided by ballot with each team awarding their opposition marks from 0 to 4 for their fair conduct throughout the match, ( with 4 being excellent). Scores are telephoned into the Festival office with the scores of the game. This proved a popular decision and continued in 2006.

The Bill Stickles Cup 2006 was awarded to The Stags who achieved maximum points in all seven games.

However in 2007 it was decided to return The Bill Stickles Cup to it's original format which it was felt encouraged a more exciting game of hockey. The success of the Fair Play Award however was not to be cast aside and through the generosity of the management of The Redcliffe Hotel, a new Cup was gifted to Torbay Easter Hockey Festival.

The Bill Stickles Cup was won in 2011 (45 goals) by Wolves.
