Central Coast Mariners player Peta Trimis is among a host of A-League stars, Matildas and Socceroos nominated in the 2024 PFA Footballer of the Year Awards.

Trimis has been nominated for Young Women’s Footballer of the Year, where the winners will be revealed in September during the FIFA international window.

The four awards consider the performances of any professional playing in the A-Leagues and any Australian players overseas between June 2023 and June 2024.

These awards recognise, reward, and celebrate Australia’s most outstanding players through peer recognition.

Last season marked the 18-year-old’s debut campaign as a professional footballer.

She joined the Mariners after her inclusion in the NPLW NSW First Grade Team of the Season, making her debut in Round 1 against Newcastle.

Trimis impressed in her 21 games (starting in 10 of them), scoring three goals, with her performances earning her an upgrade from a scholarship to a full contract earlier this year.

Her season also saw her nominated for Young Footballer of the Year.

“Australia’s footballers continue to inspire with their performances on the international, continental, and domestic stages,” PFA Co-Chief Executive Kathryn Gill said in announcement.

“In the past year, our Matildas achieved Australia’s highest-ever FIFA World Cup finish, while a fresh and exciting generation is emerging during a new era for the Socceroos.”

She added that in the A-Leagues players have consistently provided high-quality and entertaining matches for the fans, while players enjoy a crucial platform into the national teams.

“Overseas, a number of the nominees played pivotal roles in promoting their clubs into the top tiers of European leagues, won silverware, and achieved personal success at the highest levels of club football.”

“We congratulate all the nominees and look forward to awarding the winners in September.”
