West Ham United women’s team manager Rehanne Skinner and players Shekiera Martinez, Viviane Asseyi and Katrina Gorry have been nominated for 2024/25 Barclays Women’s Super League End of Season awards.
Skinner has overseen a campaign of improvement and development in east London, seeing her team set new Club records, including biggest-ever WSL victory, most goals scored in a WSL season, and most points and most wins at home in a single WSL term in the side’s seven-year history in the competition.
The manager, who recently penned a contract extension at the Club, is up against Chelsea’s Sonia Bompastor, Arsenal’s Renée Slegers, Manchester United’s Marc Skinner and Brighton & Hove Albion’s Dario Vidošić.
Voting for this category will go live on Thursday 15 May, with the winner being unveiled at the
League Managers’ Association dinner at the end of May.
Meanwhile, attacker Martinez is up for the WSL Player of the Season accolade for her instrumental impact since returning to Chadwell Heath.
The 23-year-old, who has won two WSL Player of the Month awards this term, has netted ten goals in eleven league appearances, including four against Crystal Palace and a brace against Chelsea.
She is up against Arsenal’s Alessia Russo and Mariona Caldentey, Chelsea’s Aggie Beever-Jones and Sandy Baltimore, Brighton & Hove Albion’s Kiko Seike, Manchester City’s Mary Fowler, Manchester United’s Maya Le Tissier and Liverpool’s Olivia Smith.
