Former England international and television presenter Alex Scott is among the top contenders for this year's Women's Football Awards, set to take place on 7 May. Scott, who won the Broadcaster or Journalist of the Year award in 2024, leads a star-studded shortlist that includes several Lionesses legends.
The ceremony, touted as the largest celebration of women's football in Europe, will be presented by sports broadcaster Gabby Logan alongside former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher. David Beckham has also thrown his support behind the event, calling the growth of the women's game 'incredible'.
'It's been so incredible to see the growth of the women's game over the years and we love cheering on the Lionesses in our house!' Beckham said. 'These awards celebrate the very best in the game both on and off the pitch.'
Past winners include Alessia Russo, Mary Earps, and Scott herself. Global fashion powerhouse Shein returns as headline partner, with a focus on styling players and grassroots footballers for the occasion. Shihong Liu, Director of Europe Markets at Shein, said the brand is 'incredibly proud' to support the game and inspire the next generation.
The Women's Football Awards continue to unite elite players, celebrity supporters, and industry leaders, reflecting the remarkable growth of the sport both in the UK and globally.
