The Attendance Cup was won by W Chiles.

The Mayor, in his speech at the conclusion of the presentation, remarked that he was surprised and gratified at the success of the club during the season, and said that for a small club it had done exceedingly well. If during the next season he could be of my assistance he would be only too eager to do so if it was in his power. He looked on the club as part of his responsibility, as he himself was a West Ender.
