Banbridge’s Director of Rugby John Best has been awarded an MBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours announced at the weekend.

A farmer for 40 years, John’s MBE recognises his services to the agri-food industry in Northern Ireland. John is well-known in farming circles, particularly in his role as chairman of the Seeds and Cereals Policy Committee with the Ulster Farmers’ Union.

Commenting on the award in Farming Life, John said: “I was very surprised – pleasantly surprised – and honoured.

“The award is a reflection on all the people who have worked with me over the years.”

John’s wife Pat received an MBE from the Queen in December last year, and the Best Family can now look forward to another day out at Buckingham Palace.
