*  No official awards presented, but these were the best-performed individuals in these
categories over the course of the season in the eyes of NZ's women's soccer writer,
and commemorative trophies will be presented to the individuals concerned.

No awards presented for 2020 as only eight full rounds were playable before the season was called off due to Coronavirus.
The 2021 Player of the Year award wasn't presented, as league management opted to discontinue this honour.
