How does the Ballon D’or voting process work?
France Football, a highly respected football publication, created the shortlist of 30 contenders for this year’s Ballon d’Or with 20 names for the women’s award.
After that, 100 journalists from FIFA’s top 100 nations will select their top five from the 30-man shortlist. The same process takes place with the women but with 50 journalists from different nations.
The players on each jury member’s list are awarded points, as follows:
| Position | Number of points |
| First | Six points |
| Second | Four points |
| Third | Three points |
| Fourth | Two points |
| Fifth | One point |
If two or more players are tied on points, the number of first-place votes they received is used as a tie-breaker.
The three main criteria when the jury member is making their decisions are: Individual and collective performance from the previous season, a player’s class and their career.
Whoever gets the most points wins the award.
