Or should the award focus on more than just who scores the most goals, and focus on the brilliant qualities that every child can showcase within grassroots football.

Are we now in an age where children care too much about the money they'll get, and is this impacting the enjoyment of grassroots football for children? Listen in to the podcast to hear our thoughts on this big topic which is dominating the grassroots game currently!
