Site Operator and Creator

SGN Soccer owns and operates World Football Award and created and developed the platform and site.

Independent Platform

World Football Award is an independent football media and recognition platform. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by any governing body, confederation, federation, competition organizer, league, club, or other third-party rights holder.

Third-Party References

References to competitions, teams, clubs, players, organizations, or other third parties are informational and do not imply endorsement, authorization, or association.

Founding Awards Program

The 2027 award ballot is announced through this site and the WFA community list. Voting runs December 1, 2026–April 30, 2027 and is currently closed. The inaugural edition assesses June 1, 2026–March 31, 2027; it does not assess the complete season. Category criteria and remaining participation procedures will accompany the ballot. See the 2027 calendar for the November field freeze, May verification and July Las Vegas event.

Founding-Fan Registration

The community update list remains available for program updates. Registration is not an award vote or nomination. When registering, you agree to the communications described on the form. You may withdraw through an available unsubscribe method or by contacting us.

Acceptable Use

You may not interfere with the site, attempt unauthorized access, submit automated or deceptive registrations or ballots, misuse site content, impersonate another person, or use the platform in violation of law. We may limit access or disregard activity that undermines site security or ballot integrity.

Intellectual Property

The World Football Award name, visual identity, site design, editorial content, and original platform materials are owned by or licensed to SGN Soccer, as applicable. Third-party names, marks, competition references, and other materials remain the property of their respective owners.

No Wagering or Professional Advice

World Football Award is a media and recognition platform. Site content and any future public verdict are not official sporting determinations, betting information, or professional advice.

Availability and Liability

The site is provided on an as-available basis. We may update, suspend, or correct site features and content. To the extent permitted by applicable law, SGN Soccer is not responsible for indirect or consequential loss arising from use of, or inability to use, the site.

We may revise these terms as the platform develops. Continued use after an updated effective date means the revised terms apply. Questions can be sent to hello@worldfootballaward.com.
