MVP VOTING

MOST VALUABLE PLAYER VOTING

The Nunawading Kangas Committee has had a lengthy discussion about the effectiveness of the current MVP voting system we have in place at the club, and they have decided to change the MVP and Coaches Award system, starting from this Winter 2025 season.

Team coaches will choose both the MVP and Coaches Awards for their team.  At the end of the regular season (pre finals) the Coach will be asked to submit their choice of players for both the MVP Award and the Coaches Award, via a google form emailed to them.

We have not come to this decision lightly and there has been a lengthy discussion about this at the last committee meeting.

There will be clear criteria defined for Coaches to assist them in choosing the MVP and Coaches Award at the end of the season. The 2 awards are 2 very different awards, with very different criteria.

The criteria for MVP Award is as follows:

- Player with great defence

- Player with confident offence skills

- Player who works well within the team - is a team player

- Fundamental ball skills

- Adaptable

- Competitive

- Enthusiastic

The criteria for Coaches Award is as follows:

- Most improved player

- Player who puts in the most effort at training and/or games

- Player who turns up to every game and training

- Player who consistently listens to the Coach 

- Player who follows Coaches instructions

- Best team player

- Player who's trying their hardest every time they step on the court

- Player who supports their team mates the most

Please note:  All Under 8 players receive a trophy at the end of the season for participation.  Under 19 players do not receive trophies.

SEASON MEDALS

The club recognises 5, 10, 15, 20 & 30 seasons played at the Nunawading Kangas Club.  Players who reach these milestone seasons will recieve a medal to recognise their contribution to the club.

LIFETIME AWARDS

Lifetime Awards recognise members who have given a huge amount of time and effort at the Nunawading Kangas Club over a number of years.  Kangas recognise all the hard work and many hours members put into the club wither by playing, coaching or being on the committee.

All of these awards are presented to players and members at the Club Presentation Night at the end of each season.
