Mollie Haines is up for a Berkshire Football Award in the category of Manager of the Season sponsored by Eddie Stobart Logistics.

As well as playing 14 times for Woodley United in their title-winning Southern Regions Women’s Football League Division One North side, Haines it would seem has also turned her hand to management at her school.

One nomination for the award said: “Mollie has managed the u12 to u16 girls football teams at The Piggott School. This year she has managed over 40 fixtures, taken 2 age groups to the last 16 of the English Schools Cup (out of over 200 schools across England), undefeated in the East Berkshire League for u13 & u15, represented Reading FC in the u13 Utilita Schools Cup, winning the Berkshire Schools Festival with u13 & u15 and finally winning u14 & u15 County Cup. She still has the u13 and u16 girls in the County Cup competition. An amazing season and driven by Mollie. Her commitment, dedication and passion for women’s football is second to none. She has made The Piggott School a force to be reckoned with, not only in Berkshire but in national competitions as well. rnA fully deserved winner of this award.”

Scroll down to the bottom of this article for the nomination form. Before you do that though, here’s what the judging panel are looking for when choosing the shortlist.

What’s the story? Tell us exactly why the person or place should be considered. We hate to get all ‘X Factor journey’ on you but the more detail you can include, the better we can argue for your nominee for the short list.

The sort of details we love to see include things like player awards, goals, clean sheets and any other significant contributions to the footballing community – obviously within the 2025/26 season.

We’ll publish all the nominees for the Berkshire Football Awards as we receive them.

You can view all the 2025 nominees so far here.6

Want to know who’s previously won what at the Berkshire Football Awards? There’s a big long page with all the previous winners here.

Nominations will be open until midnight on Sunday 10th May 2026.

The Long List will be published on Friday 15th May and the Short List on Monday 18th May at midday.

Once the nomination window has closed, the nominations in each category will be put before a panel of over 20 judges for a decision, the top four announced online and the winners at the awards night on Wednesday 10th June.

We will accept nominations for people out of area, the only prerequisite is that the reason for nomination is that it must be because of an affiliation with a club we cover on Football in Berkshire (a full list is at the bottom of this page). We will present certificates and a trophy to the winners.

  • All nominations are done by you, the Berkshire footballing public
  • You can nominate as many people as you like for each award – the quantity of nominations counts for the judging panel..
  • That said, quality is just as important, the more detail you provide about why you are nominating, the better
  • Please try and avoid nominating your own family members
  • Due to difficulties in obtaining permissions under child protection laws we won’t consider any player under the age of 16 for nomination in any of the categories
