Any member of the football club is eligible to win this prestigious award but it is usually won by a member of the committee, who has serves the club above and beyond his elected position.

The cup was presented to the football club by the family of John Knight who was a prominent member of the Egbertian Association and football club, following his premature death in 1965. The Knight family wished the cup to act as a memorial to John and wished it to be presented to the club member who contributes the most to the well-being of the club during the season, with emphasis on all round club support and work rather than playing achievements. This tradition has held to this day.
