# Ekstraklasa Awards

The Ekstraklasa Awards are awarded every year to the best footballers of Ekstraklasa.

## History and regulations

The awards are given out during a post-season event named Gala Ekstraklasy (The Ekstraklasa Gala), held days after the final matchday. Awards for the best player and the biggest discovery of the Ekstraklasa season were first introduced in 2010. An award for the best coach was introduced one year later. In 2013, positional awards were given for the first time. The ‘Discovery of the Season’ award was discontinued after 2018 and then replaced with the ‘Young Player of the Season’ award.
While the Player of the Season award is given on the basis of a vote by footballers playing in Ekstraklasa, the Young Player of the Season is chosen by the sponsor of the league (currently PKO Bank Polski), and the positional and coach award winners are chosen by a panel of journalists.
Since the 2006–07 season, an award for the top scorer of the passing season is also presented during the gala.
