Madison Chambers of Olympia Warriors won the highest honours in the Women’s Super League awards.

Mathew Sanders of Hobart Zebras won the NPL Golden Boot Award in the NPL, while Ulverstone’s Jazmin White won the Golden Boot in the Women’s Super League.

Goal-of-the-Year awards went to Jonathon Ladic (Olympia) in the NPL and Georgia King (Ulverstone) in the WSL.

[My sincere apologies to all other award winners.  My memory card was corrupted and the above photos are the only ones I was able to retrieve. This has never happened before and, frankly, I'm devastated.]
