Best Male Soccer Player ESPY Award

Best Male Soccer Player ESPY Award

The Best Male Soccer Player ESPY Award was presented annually between 2002 and 2004 to the male soccer (association football) player adjudged to be the best in a given calendar year amongst those contesting the sport on the professional or international level. The award, as the Best Female Soccer Player ESPY Award, evolved from the Best Soccer Player ESPY Award, which was awarded in 2000 and 2001, and the latter once more absorbed the gender-specific awards in 2005.

During the award's three years, the voting panel comprised variously fans, who participated through Internet balloting; sportswriters and broadcasters, sports executives, and retired sportspersons, termed collectively "experts"; and ESPN personalities. The ESPY Awards ceremony was conducted in June and awards conferred reflected performance and achievement over the twelve months previous to presentation [Because of the rescheduling of the ESPY Awards ceremony, the award presented in 2002 was given in consideration of performance betwixt February 2001 and June 2002.] .
