Katja Riipi Award
The Katja Riipi Award () is an ice hockey trophy, seasonally awarded by the Finnish Ice Hockey Association to the best forward of the Naisten Liiga, previously the "Naisten SM-sarja". Best forward in the Naisten Liiga was first awarded in the 2005–06 season, to Saara Tuominen Niemi. The award was named in honor of Katja Riipi during the 2010–11 season. 

The most Katja Riipi Awards won by a single player is four, a record held by Ilves Tampere head coach Linda Välimäki Leppänen. KalPa Kuopio phenom Elisa Holopainen is the current title holder and has won the award in each of the past three seasons, making her the first player to win the award three times consecutively and the third to win the award more than once, after Välimäki Leppänen and Anne Helin.
