York United FC goalkeeper Thomas Vincensini has been shortlisted for the Canadian Premier League's Golden Glove award after a stellar debut campaign with The Nine Stripes.

In total, the Frenchman racked up 2700 minutes of action - playing every single second of the club's 30 games. In that time, he accumulated seven clean sheets, managed over 70 saves and even made a crucial penalty save in a tight 1-0 win over Valour FC on Matchday 18.

He was twice named Allstate CPL Goalkeeper of the Month, in June and August, becoming the only CPL netminder to earn the honour on more than one occasion this year.

"I'm really happy for the nomination and very honoured too," Vincensini says.

"It's really a reward for the entire team and their efforts throughout the 2024 season. I thoroughly enjoyed all of the games throughout the year and it's been a wonderful first season in the Canadian Premier League. Thank you to everyone for their help and support, especially the club's coaches and staff."

Vincensini has been shortlisted along with Pacific FC’s Emil Gazdov and Vancouver FC’s Callum Irving and the winner will be revealed at an in-person awards ceremony at Calgary, Alta. on Thursday, Nov. 7 as part of the 2024 CPL Final festivities.

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.

The 2024 CPL Awards ceremony will be broadcast live on dedicated soccer channel OneSoccer and streamed on CBC Gem and cbcsports.ca beginning at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT. The show will be hosted by Andi Petrillo with appearances by current and former CPL players and coaches, as well as special guests from the Canadian soccer community.
