OTTAWA, ON - Atlético Ottawa goalkeeper and captain Nathan Ingham has been nominated for the prestigious Golden Glove award following the 2025 Canadian Premier League (CPL) regular season.
Ingham (32) played every minute of the regular season and anchored Atlético’s defensive structure during another strong season for the capital club. The veteran netminder led all CPL goalkeepers with at least 500 minutes played in save percentage (74.1%). He ranked second in total saves (80) and goals conceded per 90 minutes (1.00). His 11 clean sheets set a new single-season record for Atlético Ottawa, helping the club maintain one of the league’s most disciplined defensive units. This is Ingham’s second Golden Glove nomination.
The winner of the Golden Glove award will receive a unique piece of Inuit soapstone art, conceived by artist Kellipalik Etidloie and carved by Ruben Komangapik. The Canadian Inuit Dog statue is awarded annually to the CPL goalkeeper voted best at his position because the Canadian Inuit Dog and goalkeepers are, similarly, protectors who play vital roles in guarding their communities.
Also nominated are Cavalry FC’s Marco Carducci and Forge FC’s Jassem Koleilat. The winner will be decided through voting by technical leadership from all eight CPL clubs as well as by select media members, representing local and national outlets, who consistently covered the 2025 CPL Regular Season. The winner will be revealed at an in-person ceremony in Ottawa, Ont. on Friday, Nov. 7 as part of the 2025 CPL Final festivities.
Voting for the CPL’s Golden Glove award is based on performances during the 2025 Regular Season, not including the TELUS Canadian Championship, Concacaf Champions Cup or 2025 CPL Playoffs action.
The 2025 CPL Awards ceremony will be broadcast live on dedicated soccer channel OneSoccer beginning at 7:30 p.m. ET/4:30 p.m. PT, with appearances by OneSoccer personalities, current and former CPL players and coaches, as well as special guests from the Canadian soccer community.
