Balón de Oro (Mexico)

This article is about the Mexican award. For the France Football award, see Ballon d'Or.

Balón de Oro, also referred to as Mexican Golden Ball (Spanish: Balón de Oro del fútbol mexicano), is an annual Mexican awards ceremony by the Mexican Federation of Association Football to the best association football players, head coaches, and referees of the Liga MX each season. Until 1997, it was an annual award, afterwards the prize was rewarded at the end of the football season. Since 1996/97 the single championship was split into two single-round tournaments, giving birth to the current Apertura and Clausura arrangement, and Balón de Oro is followed them. In 2001/02 no awards were handed out as the officials forgot about organising an election.[1] The ceremony entered a 4-year hiatus following the 2012 Clausura until the 2015–16 Liga MX season.
