Nominations close on Friday 27th March and the national award winners will be announced at The FA Community Shield and presented by McDonald’s held at Wembley Stadium in August. The winners will be selected by a judging panel including legends of the game such as 1966 World Cup hat-trick hero Sir Geoff Hurst.

“The FA Community Awards presented by McDonald’s are a fantastic way to celebrate all those volunteers, clubs and leagues who put in countless hours into grassroots football. I would urge everyone to vote for someone who they think is truly deserving of an award.”
