ONTARIO, California (April 8, 2020) – The Major Arena Soccer League (MASL) today released the schedule of announcements for the 2019-2020 post season awards beginning with All-MASL Honorable Mention.
Each active MASL player, head coach, and one member of each team front office were invited to submit one ballot. Voting was based on the regular season performance.
Calculating the 1st, 2nd and 3rd All-MASL Teams are based off a point system. Players receive three points for a 1st team vote, two points for 2nd team, and one point for a 3rd team vote. The highest number of points is then calculated to determine three Forward/Midfielders in each team, then two Defenders, and one GK. In case of a tie in points, it is determined by who had more 1st team votes, then 2nd team. The All-Rookie Team is selected by highest total votes by position (F, M/F, D, GK). Individual Major Awards are based on highest number of total votes. Tie breakers go to player with the most all league points or it can be determined a tie.
