Times running out to nominate your favourite player for the NPL Show Supporters Player of the Season!

Time is running out to select your favourite player for the NPL Show Supporters Player Award!!

The NPL Show Supporters Award

Now in its tenth year, the award was won last year by Radcliffe striker Tunde Owolabi, now at FC United, joining the likes of Julio Arca, Ryan Kendall, Steven Thompson and Cheyenne Dunkerly as recipients of the first and one of the only awards in the UK decided solely by the fans of the league.

With several players standing out across all three divisions, the decision will be tough but who will take the crown this season?

As always we start with the open nominations phase of the process in which fans can nominate any active player in the League to be involved.

There are three ways to nominate:

- Via Facebook in which to comment in the specific thread on the League Page
- Via Twitter, using the #NPLSPOTS20 Hashtag
- Via Instagram, commenting on the Photo with the rules of the contest

The Nominations run between the 27th Feb- 8th March at 23:59

The Final five will be decided by a judge panel featuring fans selected by each club, the Media officers of each club and members of the commentary and newspaper teams within the league before a final vote in March to decide the winner
