PFA ‘Team Of The Season’ Voting Explained

PFA representatives deliver the ballot forms to the training ground of the 92 League clubs.

Amongst the instructions and procedures that a player is given is that they are not allowed to vote for a player that is at the same club as themselves and applies in all award categories.

Another stipulation is that a player can only win an award if their club has taken part in the ballot, this ensures that all players from other clubs that have voted have a fair chance of winning an award.

After a member has decided who they are voting for they must sign, fold and then give their envelope to the PFA representative who will seal the vote.

The PFA use an independent company to count and verify the votes cast, and completed ballots are sent directly to Beever & Struthers Chartered Accountants.
