VGOA Best & Fairest Trophy

This perpetual award is presented to the player who displays the highest levels of gridiron skill throughout the senior season together with high levels of fairness and sportsmanship encouraged by the rules of the sport. Three, two and one votes are allocated by the officiating crews at the conclusion of each senior match and these are totalled at the end of the regular season allowing the recipient to be determined. We have endeavoured to present this Trophy every year since our inception in 1986.
