Miners president Garry Valente said Boyle was a worthy recipient of the club's most prestigious honour.
"His contribution to the club and knowledge of the sport is phenomenal," Valente said.
"He's also a great leader who is 100 per cent committed to always doing his best ."
The Miners' season was cancelled earlier this year due to COVID, however, Valente said the club did its best given the circumstances.
"It was important that we kept together throughout the year given all that was going on," he said,
"We also played enough games to build a strong momentum for 2022."
