At the Malta FA Awards, Luke Montebello of Ħamrun Spartans and Stephania Farrugia of Birkirkara FC were named the Men’s and Women’s Players of the Year, respectively.

Montebello also received the MFPA Men’s Best Player award earlier this month, following a stellar season where he topped the goalscorers’ list with 21 goals and helped his team secure their tenth Premier League title.

Farrugia played a crucial role in Birkirkara’s success, leading her team to win the Women’s League, Knock Out competition, and Super Cup, and contributing to the national team’s historic promotion in the UEFA Women’s League.

Other notable winners included Mauro Camoranesi, named Coach of the Year, Yuri Messias as Best Foreign Player, and Owen Spiteri as Best Young Player of the Year.

Melita’s Matthew Debattista was Best Player in the Challenge League, and his teammate Andre Carlos was the top scorer. The Football Social Responsibility Award went to Fgura United, and Joe Cini was inducted into the Malta FA Hall of Fame.

Today Is World Redhead Day

May 26th is World Redhead Day – a vibrant celebration of people with naturally red hair.

With redheads reportedly making up less than 2% of the global population, the festival was started in 2005 unintentionally by Dutch painter Bart Rouwenhorst in a small Dutch city.

Inspired by painters who created portraits of redheaded women, he decided to hold an exhibition of 15 new paintings of redheads.

Finding it an issue to find redheads – due to their rarity – he release an advertisement, leading to a response by 150 volunteers.

This has carried on throughout history as the rarity of the hair colour is celebrated in various parts of the world.

Do you know any redheads?
