The 22-year-old goalkeeper was named Player of the Year, and Players' Player of the Year in front of more than 300 supporters at the DW Stadium.
Tickle only made his league debut in the final game of last term against Rotherham, but his appearance against Bristol Rovers this weekend will complete a full house this season.
