Livingstone and Bandura are Players of the Month

Rosie Livingstone and Natalie Bandura have picked up the March 2026 Scottish Women’s Premier League Player of the Month awards, supported by Park’s Motor Group.    

In the ScottishPower Women’s Premier League, Rosie Livingstone has been in impressive form, providing four goal contributions in March and powering Hibernian’s attack as they continue their undefeated run in the post-split phase. Joelle Murray’s side kicked off March with a 1-1 draw against Celtic at New Douglas Park, where Livingstone contributed with an assist shortly before half-time.

The versatile forward continued to be influential in the following fixture as Hibernian took on Rangers at home. The match ended 2-2 in a tough duel which could have gone either way, with Livingstone picking up both assists on the night. The final fixture of March saw Hibs head to Oriam for the Edinburgh Derby, where the side from Leith came out on top 2-1, due to a fantastic late winner from range by Livingstone.

Livingstone’s fine performances have also seen her gain international recognition, cementing her place as a regular Scotland under-23 international as her season continues to go from strength to strength.

In the ScottishPower Women’s Premier League 2 (SPWPL2), Natalie Bandura picks up her second Player of the Month award this season, having been a key contributor in Spartans’ charge for promotion. Spartans sit second in the SPWPL2, just seven points behind Kilmarnock having lost only once so far in 2026. March was one to remember for Bandura as she has been in fine goalscoring form, leading the line for the Edinburgh side.  

The Scottish-born Poland youth international started the month with the only goal of the game in a tight contest against Boroughmuir Thistle before netting an impressive hat-trick away to Queen’s Park where Spartans recorded a thrilling 4-0 win over the Spiders.

The other nominees for the March 2026 SWPL Player of the Month award, supported by Park’s Motor Group, were Carla Boyce (Motherwell), Kelly Clark (Celtic), and Hannah Stewart (Aberdeen), and for the SWPL2 award were Emily Arthur (Boroughmuir Thistle), Taylor McGlashan (Kilmarnock) and Jess Murphy (Livingston).
