AFL Army Award


From 2007 until 2009, the Australian [Football League] produced the AFL Army Award in partnership with the Australian Army, to recognise players who produced significant acts of bravery or selflessness to promote the cause of their team during a game.
Three nominees were selected by a panel and put up for a public vote after each of the 22 regular season rounds. Each of the weekly winners were then considered by the panel to produce a selection shortlist for the general public to vote on. The winner of the vote needed the endorsement of the selection panel.
