Virtual Manager Awards 2013

Bårdur, The Red Devil 5 December 2013, 16:09

Now that the year is drawing to a close, we'd like to take a moment to show our appreciation for the year gone by. We're going to mark the end of 2013 by starting a new tradition. If it is well received, it may become an annual event. We hereby open up the Virtual Manager Awards 2013 - the first official one of its kind.

How did we come up with the nominees?

We started the process of choosing a panel consisting of 100 managers - both Danish and International. When selecting the panel, we emphasised clubs that were active in 2013, clubs we felt had an insight into several of the categories, clubs of all levels, clubs that have been active in the trading market, and clubs that have been active on the forums. All in all, a user panel that we believe represents a wide spectrum of our users. The panel submitted their nominations in the categories in which they could offer. We have added up the nominations, and reached the conclusion which can be seen on the voting page.

What are the categories?

We started up with 10 categories. Along the way, we had to replace one of the categories with a new one, because we didn't receive enough nominations, for us to endorse the vote in this particular category. A "second panel" was set up to find a new category and the nominees to go along with it. We ended up with the following 10 categories.

  • Male manager of the year
  • Female manager of the year
  • Trophy Hunter of the year
  • Best trading club of the year
  • Player trade of the year
  • Most helpful manager of the year
  • Forum debater of the year
  • Newcomer of the year
  • Most underestimated club this year
  • Who will perform next year?

Prizes for number 1, 2 and 3

Of course there must be prizes for those who finish in the top-3. We have decided to award the following prizes to the top 3 rankings.

  • Number 1 in each category will receive 200 days of VM Premium and 200 VM Tickets.
  • Number 2 in each category will receive 100 days of VM Premium and 100 VM Tickets.
  • Number 3 in each category will receive 50 days of VM Premium and 50 VM Tickets.

Prizes for those who participate in the vote

There will also be prizes for those who choose to participate in the vote. In cooperation with our partner Unisport, we have chosen to distribute the official Adidas Brazuca World Cup 2014 match ball to 3 lucky participants. The match ball has a value of €120.

To participate in the draw, it is required that you have VM Premium.
