A panel of professional football judges – made up of referees and ex-professional players – come together to decide where, in their professional opinion, the centre of the ball should be in the image everyone played the previous week. The winner is the person who is closest to the judged position. The judging takes place in the presence of an independent lawyer and we film and publish the whole process so it’s completely transparent. Players can watch how the judges reach their decision on the Results Pages of the BOTB website
