Olid, Cuthbert and Weir shortlisted for Scottish Women's Football Awards 2026

Manchester United head coach Eva Olid, Chelsea midfielder Erin Cuthbert, and Ballon d'Or nominee Caroline Weir are among those shortlisted for the 2026 Scottish Women's Football Awards.

Eva Olid is in contention for the coach of the year award following her successful tenure at Heart of Midlothian, where she led the team to their first Scottish Women's Premier League title. She faces competition from Leanne Crichton of Rangers, Joelle Murray of Hibernian, and Jack Beesley of Spartans.

For the Scotland international player of the year award, the shortlist includes Erin Cuthbert, Caroline Weir—who recently moved to Lyon—Brann winger Lauren Davidson, and Newcastle United striker Kathleen McGovern.

The SWPL 1 player of the year category features four strikers: Glasgow City's Nicole Kozlova, Celtic's Saoirse Noonan, Rangers' Katie Wilkinson, and Georgia Timms, who joined Ipswich Town over the summer.

The winners are set to be revealed at a ceremony held at Hampden Park on 28 November.
