ASKAM-born Wyll and Georgia Stanway won major accolades within 24 hours of each other as both find success on the pitch.
Attacking midfielder Georgia Stanway scored and assisted in a game that broke Bayern Munich's record for the most unbeaten matches in a row - standing at 41 and counting.
Less than a day later, on September 14 goalkeeper Wyll Stanway made his English Football League debut and was named man of the match away at Grimsby Town, according to CAA Base.
Georgia, who also plays in the England squad, was seen touring the Furness peninsula over the summer backing grassroot football and meeting a long-term sponsor Matt Johnson Prestige.
Wyll signed for Barrow AFC in May after a spell at Chester. He represents his country in the England C squad.
He said at the time of the signing that his football career began in a grassroots Barrow club: "It all just started as a mate who managed Furness Rovers - he was short one day without a goalkeeper and I said I'd stand in net for them.
"And here we are, since then it's just gone from strength to strength."
