2015 - Owain Fon Williams
Owain Fon Williams was born and raised in Dyffryn Nantlle, North West Wales. He left his hometown in Wales at 16 to sign for Crewe as he chased the dream of becoming a professional goalkeeper.
Owain left Crewe at 21 in search of first team football and found that at Stockport County where he won their 2008-09 player of the year award. Fon Williams had stints at Bury and Rochdale before settling down at Tranmere Rovers where he spent four years and played over 180 matches.
Fon Willaims signed for Inverness on the same day of the club's first ever Europa League match against Astra Giurgiu and made his debut in that game. Owain saved a penalty against Motherwell on his league debut and played all 38 league matches in the 2015/16 season.
Owain was first called up to senior Wales squad in 2009 and has remained a part of it ever since. He made his debut for Wales in 2015 and was subbed on for the final 16 minutes in a 3-2 loss to the Netherlands.
Fon Williams was named in Chris Coleman's Wales Euro 2016 squad alongside the likes of Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey and Ashley Williams. Wales made it all the way to the semi-finals of the competition but were knocked out by eventual winners Portugal.
In Feb 2018 he was signed on loan to Indy Eleven in the USA by new Coach Martin Rennie - originally from Thurso.
Owain is a talented artist in his free time and his works can be seen on www.owainfonwilliams.com

2018 - Sean Welsh
Sean started his career at Hibs and excelled in the U19 team, captaining them to a league and cup double in 2008/09 and being awarded the League Player of the Season that year but a series of injuries including a double leg-break limited his first team chances. He went on loan to Stenhousemuir and then Stirling Albion in the 2010/11 season but agreed a one year deal extension with Hibs in the interim. In July 2011 he was injured in a training session after being punched by a team-mate and required surgery to repair a broken cheekbone. He made a further 8 appearances on the subs bench but did not feature on the park. A loan spell at Partick followed in early 2012 and when he was released from his contract at the end of the season he signed a two year deal with Partick.
Welsh was an integral part of the 2012/13 First division championship winning side and was handed the Partick captaincy for their return to the Premiership ahead of the 2013/14 season. Once again injury hampered his season (knee) and he was limited to only 3 appearances. In 2015/16 and 2016/17 he had a total of 64 appearances scoring 6 goals. He left Partick when his contract expired.
Sean was out of the game for almost 8 months before signing on a short-term deal with Falkirk during the 2017/18 season. At the end of the season he left Falkirk and signed for Caley Thistle.
When fit, Sean has established himself as a first team regular and captain in the absence of Aaron Doran.
He scored his first goal for the club, a 48th minute penalty against Alloa in a League match at the Caledonian Stadium on August 25th 2018.
Sean has penned a new 2 year extension to his contract until the end of season 23/24. Unfortunately he has missed the start of 22/23 season after undergoing minor surgery on a knee injury.
Sean captained Inverness during the 2023 Scottish Cup Final defeat by Celtic at Hampden Park on June 3rd.
Sean has left Inverness by mutual consent in January 2024 to move back to the central belt. His career at Inverness had been hindered by numerous injury problems, but he was always one of the first names on the list when injury free. Good luck Sean.
This season, Sean has played 9 matches across all competitions. He leaves the club having played in total 143 games, scoring 16 goals.
