I vote for "none." Just give them a certificate of participation. Otherwise,
you're likely to end up with players bickering over who really deserved what
award.

I wouldn't even give a certificate of participation. Give them all a t-shirt
that has something on it related to the team and leave it at that.
The problem with the awards you suggest is that there is usually two or
three players who actually deserve ALL those awards. You're not fooling
anybody either. Everybody knows some of the players are just getting awards
so they will have something ... not because they actually deserved it or
earned it.
It usually creates more problems than it creates "good feelings."
If you're going to have any awards - have one - MVP. And leave it at that.
