Every week a player is nominated for the award and at the end of the year a panel of nine AFL figures (adminstrators and broadcasters) cast 5-4-3-2-1 vote for the winner.
To be eligible to be nominated for the award a player must be under 21 on January 1 of that year, have played 10 or fewer senior games before the beginning of the season, and not have been committed an offence that would have earned them more than 100 carry-over points at the tribunal during the season.
It is possible for a player to be nominated for the award twice while he is eligible. Nathan Jones, Jordan Gysberts, Sam Blease, Luke Jackson and jake Bowey were nominated twice.
