PHILADELPHIA - PennZone -- The National Lacrosse League (@NLL), the largest and most successful professional lacrosse property in the world, today announced the process and criteria for the end of season player awards.

Each Member Club had the opportunity to nominate and vote on the following awards:

• Most Valuable Player
• Rookie of the Year
• Defensive Player of the Year
• Goaltender of the Year
• Transition Player of the Year
• Sportsmanship Award
• Les Bartley Award (Head Coach of the Year)
• General Manager of the Year
• Executive of the Year
• Tom Borrelli Award (Media Person of the Year)

NLL players nominated and voted for the Teammate of the Year award with point system being the same values as the other awards. Each team nominated one player from their organization for this award.

Once nominations were secured, each Member Club casted three ballots for each award by three members of their organization. Select media were eligible to vote for all awards except Executive of the Year. All awards are based on regular season performance. The voting period began after the conclusion of the regular season on May 1 and closed prior to the first playoff game on May 6.

Each ballot allowed the voting members to rank their top five choices for each award. Points were distributed for each first through fifth place vote as follows:

• 1^st Place – 10 points
• 2^nd Place – 7 points
• 3^rd Place – 5 points
• 4^th Place – 3 points
• 5^th Place – 1 point

The top three vote accumulating individuals will be announced as the finalists for the award. The finalist who accumulated the most points after the voting period ended will be the award winner. In the case of a tie, the tiebreaker is to be decided by the individual who received the most 1^st Place votes, followed by the number of 2^nd place votes, and so on, until a winner is decided.
