Scott Carey, Richard Dodds and Nick Clarke were presented with the award, a tribute to their dedication at the club.
Swifts president Steve Hoffmann said the trio were well deserving of the award.
“For three young players to be awarded life membership of a club is a display of how loyalty is rewarded in a country football club,” he said.
Hoffmann said all three players were awarded life memberships after reaching 200 senior games.

“These players not only reached their milestone during the year in the number of games they have played, but they all contribute in leadership roles around the club,” he said.
Scott Carey said he hopes the awards will show younger footballers a goal in which they could achieve.
“People mention loyalty is slowly disappearing from the game. I hope the dedication demonstrated inspires young footballers starting their careers,” he said.
Carey said the club is focusing on future sustained success and by having three members of the leadership team awarded life memberships, just reiterates the focus.
