CITY midfielder Tom Adeyemi has been named as Championship Manager Apprentice of the Year at the Football League Awards presented at a gala event in London this evening.
Meanwhile Wes Hoolahan was shortlisted for Coca-Cola League One Player of the Year, with the accolade going to Jermaine Beckford of Leeds United.
Norwich City were shortlisted in the League One E.ON Family Club of the Year category, which was won by Huddersfield Town.
The Club has also been awarded with a Football League Family Excellence Award - their third in successive years.
A total of 35 clubs had been shortlisted for awards, with 13 clubs earning more than one entry. This year's award has seen a 23% increase in entries with 295 submissions being received from clubs across all three divisions.
In announcing the successful clubs, Football League Chairman, Lord Mawhinney, said: "The annual Football League Awards gives us the opportunity to recognise excellence both on and off the field. I congratulate all clubs who have made the shortlists for this year's event. The number and quality of entries has been outstanding."
City are previous winners of Family Club of the Year, Best Club Sponsorship, Best Club Marketing campaign and Best Community Initiative. Will Hoy, Norwich City's Head of Sales and Marketing added: "The Club is delighted to receive the Family Excellence Award again and also be shortlisted once more for Family Club of the Year at the Football League Awards.
"We run a number of family initiatives on matchdays and non matchdays with a clear family focus and a clear goal - that the experience supporters receive is first class. These children are our next generation of supporters and we want them to enjoy every part of being a Norwich City fan, supporting the Football Club for many years to come."
Midfielder Tom Adeyemi broke into the first team this season after successful performances in the Club's under-18s - reaching an FA Youth Cup quarter-final and securing runners-up spot in the FA Premier Academy League last campaign.
Expert judging panels were assembled for each category including representatives of the media, the sports industry and The Football League with the process of evaluating each entry taking place at Football League headquarters on January 27 and 28.
