The Eric White Memorial Trophy is presented annually and is voted for by the members of the Club. It goes to the player who in their opinion has given the best individual performance in a match during the season.
In 2007 it was John Mousinho who was presented with his trophy after the Wycombe match, for his goalkeeping prowess against Gillingham at home.
Last year the trophy was won by Nathan Elder for his performance at Morecambe. His trophy is yet to be presented.

Alan, Steve and I would like to say a big thank you to all our customers for their continued support and a big thank you to all those people who have donated programmes during the last year. A special thank you to Dave Carter, the kit man, for his help in passing on unwanted current seasons away programmes in particular and also ensuring that programmes the Club purchases arrive back at Griffin Park, it is much appreciated Dave.
The last 15 years have seen the Club achieve various goals. A book called Griffin Park Collectables, known as the bible, was produced and is now in the process of being updated. It contains a definitive list of all home programmes issued from 1946-47 until 1994-95 and is still available from the Programme Shop.
We also now run a subscription service to enable members to purchase away programmes. If you are interested in this for next season please come along to the shop for more details.
