Under-18s Ace Iversen Scoops Top Prize At Academy Awards

Everton Under-18s midfielder Einar Iversen was honoured with the prestigious Keith Tamlin award at the Club’s annual Academy Awards evening at St George's Hall on Thursday night.

The accolade is named after the Club’s Vice Life President and honours a player for their “excellence, attitude and application” during their time in the Academy.

As well as Mr Tamlin, the ceremony was attended by Everton Director of Football Marcel Brands, Academy Director Joel Waldron and Academy graduate Jonjoe Kenny.

Under-18s skipper Iversen, who joined the Blues from Norwegian outfit Stord in 2017, follows in the footsteps of the likes of Tom Davies, Beni Baningime and Ross Barkley, who have previously won the prize.
