The Julie Dolan Medal is awarded annually to the player voted to be the best player in the highest women's soccer league in Australia. The medal has been presented to players in the W-League and previously in the Women's National Soccer League (WNSL). The medal is named after former Matilda's Captain and soccer administrator Julie Dolan. The format was changed for the 2015–16 season, with a panel featuring former players, media, referees and technical staff, who voted on each regular-season match.[1]
Since 2016 the award has been presented jointly with the Johnny Warren Medal at an event known as the Warren – Dolan Awards , where both A-League and W-League awards are presented.[2]
