Noora Räty Award

Finnish ice hockey award

The Noora Räty Award (Finnish: Noora Räty -palkinto) is an ice hockey trophy awarded to the Rookie of the Year of the Naisten Liiga (previously the Naisten SM-sarja), as selected by the Finnish Ice Hockey Association. Rookie of the Year was first awarded in the 2005–06 Naisten SM-sarja season and the first recipient was Espoo Blues Naiset rookie goaltender Noora Räty. Since her rookie season, Räty has established herself as a top goaltender – considered by many to be one of the best women’s goaltenders in the world.[1] The Naisten SM-sarja Rookie of the Year award was named after Räty in the 2010–11 season.[2]
