“To be eligible to be shortlisted for these exciting new CONCACAF awards, all players have met one of the following criteria:

“Have played for a CONCACAF Member Association’s senior Men’s or Women’s national team (in aforementioned eligible competitions and matches).

“Regardless of nationality, have played for a club (current or most recent season) in a Concacaf and FIFA sanctioned top division Men’s or Women’s professional league in the Concacaf region,” it read.

PUNCH Online reports that the confederation organises championships at the under-13, under-15, under-17, under-20 and Olympic Championship levels for girls and boys, women and men.

CONCACAF also supports FIFA in coordinating qualifying for Men’s and Women’s World Cups and Olympic Games, and the Beach Soccer and Futsal World Cups.
