Awards season is officially here, and we want you to be part of the action. The Athletic is calling on our readers to help decide two of our most exciting end-of-season honors: the Men's Young Player of the Season and the Women's Young Player of the Season.
These categories will be featured in The Athletic's annual awards show, set to broadcast later this month across social media and available as a podcast. It's your chance to have a say in who takes home the trophy.
To be eligible, players on the shortlists must have been aged 21 or under as of July 1, 2025. Our team of Premier League and WSL experts has carefully selected the nominees, ensuring only the brightest young talents are in the running.
Voting is easy—you can cast your ballot right here or via the Google Forms link below. Whether you want to vote in both categories or just one, every vote counts. Mobile users, just scroll sideways to see all options.
Don't miss this opportunity to celebrate the future stars of the game. Get your vote in now and help crown the next generation of soccer greats!
