The Biggest Problem With Women’s Soccer Awards | Full Time PodcastLast week, Aitana Bonmati won her third consecutive Ballon d\u2019Or \u2013 essentially crowning her as the best player in the world for a third consecutive season. Understandably, that got the whole world talking about how we judge individual awards in soccer and what it means to be at the top of that list? The Full Time podcast included. <\/p>\n
So, on this week’s Full Time podcast, hosts Tamerra Griffin and Meg Linehan are joined by esteemed panel of guests, including Ballon d’Or voters Annie Peterson and Soph Downey, and The Guardian Top 100 Women’s Footballers coordinator Rich Laverty, to try and figure out whether we can fix women’s soccer awards voting.<\/p>\n
What issues currently exist in the voting format? How are biases exposed in the voting and the awards themselves? Is is it even possible to be objective? And, what role does accessibility and national team performance in determining which players get their flowers?<\/p>\n
