The Canadian Premier League (CPL) announced on Monday the nominees for this year’s Golden Glove, presented by Allstate, which recognizes the league’s top goalkeeper based on performances during the 2026 CPL Regular Season.
The winner will be determined by votes cast by technical leadership from all eight CPL clubs, alongside select media members from local and national outlets who regularly covered the 2026 CPL Regular Season. The award will be presented at the 2026 CPL Awards ceremony on Thursday, Nov. 19, as part of the 2026 CPL Final festivities.
Ingham, 33, was a key figure in Cavalry FC's CPL Shield-winning success in 2026, recording a league-leading 11 clean sheets while posting the highest overall save percentage (72.5 per cent) among CPL goalkeepers. The veteran netminder also led the league in starts (27) and minutes played (2,430), demonstrating his consistency and durability across the campaign. Beyond his shot-stopping ability, Ingham completed 14 successful sweeper actions and 125 long passes, ranking second among goalkeepers in both categories. He also recorded a 93.1 per cent save rate on shots from outside the box, the second-highest mark in the league. This marks Ingham’s fourth career CPL Golden Glove nomination since 2019.
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.
