Athlone Town's Corbet scoops Player of the Year award to cap off fine season for midlanders

The 2022 SSE Airtricity Women’s National League Awards took place at the Gibson Hotel.

ATHLONE TOWN’S EMILY Corbet has been named Player of the Year for 2022 to cap off an impressive season for the midlands side.

Corbet picked up the top gong at the 2022 SSE Airtricity Women’s National League Awards following a campaign where Athlone finished second in the league and runners-up in the EVOKE.ie FAI Women’s Cup.

Athlone boss Tommy Hewitt was selected as Manager of the Year while three Athlone players were included in the Team of the Year at the awards ceremony in the Gibson Hotel.

League and cup winners Shelbourne were also represented by three players on the team, as Jessica Gargan, Shauna Fox and Jessie Stapleton all got the nod.

Wexford Youths and Bohemians had one player apiece in the side while Peamount United’s Áine O’Gorman and Sligo Rovers’ Emma Doherty were also inlcuded.

Shelbourne ace Stapleton claimed the Young Player of the Year, while Tara O’Hanlon (Peamount United) and Hannah Healy (Shelbourne) won the EA Sports Women’sUnder 19 and Under 17 League Player of the Year Awards respectively.

The EVOKE.ie Golden Boot for top goalscorer went to Peamount United captain Áine O’Gorman for the fifth time in her career and Shelbourne goalkeeper Amanda Budden retained the Bank of Ireland Golden Gloves awards for most clean sheets.

    Charlie Adam all day long. I thought Mata’s scissors kick was worthy of a nomination though.

    Charlie Austin’s would be in my top 5 and its not even here. That one touch turn and strike was sweet

    Ya maybe your right but the fact that he always tries it and it’s not off the cuff just makes it less special I feel. Austin’s, for example, was sheer instinct.

    Search on youtube “Di Maria Manchester United” some of his crosses and assists there are amazing. He fully deserves another chance to prove his worth at United!

    Definitely. His form dipped when he returned from injury. Happens to a lot of players. Even though his form dipped, only cesc has more assists than him. Makes me wonder what might have been had he avoided the injury.

    It’s got to be Charlie Adam. Although Phillips is in with a shout. If a top player scored that we’d still be talking about it – you don’t often see 45 yard screamers- it wasn’t a looping shot but a belter from that distance rising all the way.

    If public polls are anything to go by, Giroud will win this poll by a mile :P

    Schurrle overhead ? Hard to do it at the best of times but he had to set this one up himself by taking it on the chest first . That would be my choice
