Major League Soccer has announced the nominees for the 2022 End of Year Awards with voting set to begin today and last through Oct. 10.

MLS Year-End Awards will be determined through voting from three groups:

  • Current MLS players
  • MLS clubs (coaches, technical directors/general managers)
  • Select media members representing local and national outlets who consistently covered the 2022 MLS regular season

Additionally, fans will have the opportunity to weigh in on the top plays of the season with both the AT&T Goal of the Year and MLS Save of the Year presented by Allstate by casting their votes on MLSsoccer.com from Oct. 12-14.
