Performances also eligible for recognition include those achieved in professional club football leagues under CONCACAF�s stewardship in North America, Central America and the Caribbean, as well as the CONCACAF Champions League. In each category, a list of nominees has already been determined through voting of Technical Directors from each of CONCACAF�s 41 Member Associations and the CONCACAF Technical Study Group, which analyzes tactics and rates performances at all official CONCACAF tournaments.
