Voting
End of Year Awards will be determined through voting between Oct. 29-Nov. 9 from three groups:
- Current MLS players.
- MLS clubs (coaches, technical directors/general Managers).
- Select media members representing local and national outlets who consistently covered the 2020 MLS regular season.
Additionally, MLS will recognize the top plays of the season with the AT&T MLS Goal of the Year and MLS Save of the Year presented by Allstate, with voting for both awards set to run from Nov. 12-18 on MLSsoccer.com.
