GAA/GPA Footballer of the Year
The Gaelic Athletic Association All Stars Footballer of the Year known for sponsorship reasons as the Vodafone Footballer of the Year is a Gaelic football award, created in 1995, that honours the achievements of a footballer of outstanding excellence. The award is part of the GAA All Stars Awards, in which a "fantasy team" is picked, comprising the best players from the Football Championship. Voting for the award is undertaken by a select group of journalists from television and the print media. The award itself is one of the most prestigious accolades in Gaelic Games.
