    In the 10th edition of the event, Chelsea star James, 22, won the Women’s Super League Player of the Year title after scoring 12 goals this season; while fellow Blues Palmer, 21, and Beever-Jones, 20, picked up the Men’s and Women’s Young Player of the Year awards respectively. The former has scored 12 goals and bagged nine assists in all competitions and "super sub" Beever-Jones, who succeeded James as this year's young winner, has seven goals to date. It's clear all three Chelsea youngsters have a bright future ahead of them.
