Carlisle United midfielder Callum Whelan has been shortlisted for a major regional honour. The 27-year-old is in contention for the PFA National League Community Champion 2025/26 award at the Northwest Football Awards 2026.
Whelan was named Carlisle's PFA Community Champion last season, a recognition of his significant work off the pitch. His nomination puts him against players from Altrincham, Morecambe, and Rochdale for the National League prize. The ceremony is scheduled for Monday, November 2 at Manchester's Deansgate Hotel, with Worldwide Shipping Solutions as the sponsor.
The news arrives as Carlisle United focus on their league campaign. The team currently sits 16th in the National League table with 10 points from nine games. Their recent form shows one win, two draws, and two defeats from the last five outings, a sequence that includes a 1-0 loss at Eastleigh last Friday.
