Out of all the 72 Football League clubs, only Wycombe Wanderers have been nominated in five different categories ahead of the 2009 FourFourTwo Awards. 

The League Two promotion contenders have been shortlisted for the Community and the Family Club of the Year awards in our division as well as Best Digital Communication (Big Screen Production), Best Marketing Campaign and 17-year-old Matt Phillips is up for the Apprentice of the Year.

Wanderers Managing Director Steve Hayes said: "It's fantastic news for everyone that we've been recognised again as a club that is setting standards both on and off the pitch.

"It's great to see all the hard work has been rewarded and hopefully we can pick up as many awards as possible on the night."   

A total of 240 entries were received from clubs across the three divisions, a 22% increase on last year.

This year 32 clubs have been shortlisted for the awards with eight of those earning more than one nomination. However, Wanderers are the only club shortlisted for five awards.

Wanderers have performed even better than last year when we were shortlisted for the Wickes Community Club of the Year, Advance Performance Best Community Initiative for League Two and Family Club of the Year for League Two.
