FIFA World Coach of the Year (Women’s): Jill Ellis FIFA Fair Play Award: All football organisations supporting refugees FIFA Ballon d'Or Soccer Award FIFA Ballon d’Or Award March 25, 2013 Lionel Messi Winning the 2012 Ballon d’Or Award The FIFA Ballon d’Or is the most prestigious soccer award given to the player that is considered to be the best in the previous soccer season. Ballon d’Or is French for “Golden Ball” and is awarded to the player who was voted as the best performer in the previous calendar year. The FIFA Ballon d’Or was originally known as just the Ballon d’Or and was created by France Football’s chief magazine writer, Gabriel Hanot in 1956. The FIFA Ballon d’Or was originally made by Mellerio dits Meller, the prestigious jewelers founded in 1613, and continues to be made by the company. It is only fitting that The Mellerio dits Meller continue to manufacture the award as they have fashioned jewelry, silverware and ceremonial swords for royal courts all across Europe.

CEO of Mellerio dits Meller, Francois Mellerio, says that the making of the Ballon d’Or is “a process that involves several craftsmen: a silversmith, repousseur, chaser, engraver, gilder and a polisher. All of them are highly valued and rare trades these days, and we are immensely proud to have created this legendary trophy.” The Ballon d’Or measures 31 centimeters high, 23 wide and 23 deep. In the beginning, the Ballon d’Or was only voted on by journalists, and only European players on European teams were eligible for consideration. So players such as Maradona, who played for a European team but was not European himself, could not win the award. The first player to be awarded the Ballon d’Or was Stanley Matthews of Blackpool in 1956. It was not until 1995 that the rules for the Ballon d’Or changed and allowed non-European players playing for European soccer clubs to win the Ballon d’Or. The same year that the rules for the soccer award changed the first non-European player, George Walsh of Milan, won the Ballon d’Or.

Further amendments to the rules for awarding the Ballon d’Or were made in 2007 and dictated that any player in the world could win the award. Also in 2007, the number of journalists who were allowed to vote changed from 52 European based journalists to 96 journalists from all over the world. Each of the 96 journalists chooses their top five choices for the award. In 2010 the Ballon d’Or and the men’s FIFA World Player of the Year award were merged into one award, currently known as the FIFA Balloon d’Or.

Published: Monday 12 January 2015, 20.06CET Ronaldo joins three-time Ballon d'Or winners Cristiano Ronaldo is the fifth player to win three or more Ballon d'Ors; UEFA.com looks at the feats of Johan Cruyff, Michel Platini, Marco van Basten and Lionel Messi. ©Getty Images Lionel Messi: 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 The Argentinian monopolised the trophy between 2009 and 2012, beginning in 2009 as he fired FC Barcelona to a treble of UEFA Champions League , Spanish Liga and Copa del Rey. That started a glorious period of dominance for the Catalans and Messi himself; highlights included 47 club goals in all competitions in 2009/10, 53 in 2010/11 – when he won another UEFA Champions League , becoming only the third player to score in two finals – and a remarkable 73 strikes in 2011/12.

That last total helped Messi register a scarcely believable 91 goals for club and country in 2012, surpassing Gerd Müller's record of 85 set in 1972 – heralding him becoming the first player to claim four successive Ballon d'Ors. ©Getty Images Johan Cruyff: 1971, 1973, 1974 The first man to win the Ballon d'Or three times, the Dutch master first collected the award in 1971, the same year he aided AFC Ajax to the first of their three consecutive European Champion Clubs' Cups. Cruyff moved on to Barcelona in 1973, the year of his second European Footballer of the Year prize, and picked up the accolade again the following year after inspiring the Netherlands to the FIFA World Cup final, where they lost to West Germany.

His impact was summed up by football historian Jimmy Burns: "With Cruyff, the team felt they couldn't lose." ©Getty Images Michel Platini: 1983, 1984, 1985 The Frenchman became the first person to receive the Ballon d'Or three years in succession in the 1980s, taking the honour for the first time in 1983, the year his Juventus side reached the European Cup final. Twelve months later the award was his again, after his nine goals – still a EURO final tournament record – had inspired France to 1984 UEFA European Championship success on home soil, adding the European Cup Winners' Cup with Juve. In 1985 the midfielder prevailed for the third year in a row having converted the penalty that gave Juventus their first European Cup. ©Getty Images Marco van Basten: 1988, 1989, 1992 The second Dutchman to be named European Footballer of the Year, Van Basten's five goals helped the Netherlands dominate the 1988 UEFA European Championship .

He came out on top again the next year, thanks mainly to finishing as Serie A's top scorer with 25 goals for AC Milan and two more in the European Cup final triumph against FC Steaua Bucureşti. The forward then became the third three-time winner of the gong in 1992, the same year he became the first player to net four goals in a UEFA Champions League match, against IFK Göteborg . ©Getty Images Cristiano Ronaldo: 2008, 2013, 2014 The Portugal ace scooped the trophy for the first time in 2008, his 31 Premier League goals and eight more in the UEFA Champions League having helped Manchester United FC win both competitions in 2007/08. Although he came second to Messi in three of the next four years, having switched to Real Madrid CF, Ronaldo posted some eye-catching feats of his own – not least his 40 Liga goals in 2010/11 and 46 more the following year – before capturing the prize for a second time in 2013, after 60 Madrid goals and ten more for Portugal.

Another remarkable campaign in 2013/14, including a record-breaking 17 UEFA Champions League strikes as Madrid secured 'La Décima', gave him the Ballon d'Or again. ©UEFA.com 1998-2017. All rights reserved. Last updated: 30/05/15 4.14CET
