Every game ends with someone getting the nod.
Recognition is the heartbeat of grassroots sport. Kickd builds it into the hour after every match — the coach’s pick, the team’s pick, and season leaderboards that make week-to-week games add up to something.
Coach’s Player of the Match
The coach picks a Player of the Match after every game — with a full hour after the final whistle to decide, not a forced call at the siren.
Players’ Player for junior teams
In the hour after a junior game, each family casts a Players’ Player pick on behalf of their child. Picks build a season leaderboard the coach reveals at presentation day.
Player-voted 3-2-1 for seniors
Senior teams can run a player-voted 3-2-1 after each match — the classic best-and-fairest count, tallied automatically across the season.
Private by design
Individual votes stay secret. Juniors see the team result, not vote counts; season standings live with the coach until they choose to announce them.
Recognition and voting, answered
How does Player of the Match voting work in Kickd?
After every game the coach records a Player of the Match, with an hour after full time to decide. Junior teams add a post-game Players’ Player vote; senior teams can add a player-voted 3-2-1 count.
How does Players’ Player voting work for junior teams?
In the hour after the game, each family casts one Players’ Player pick on behalf of their child. Votes are secret, and the picks build a season leaderboard only the coach can see until it’s announced.
Do parents vote during the game?
No. All voting happens in the hour after the final whistle — during the game, supporters simply watch the live match view.
Are votes secret?
Yes. Individual votes are never shown to other parents or players. Junior teams see team results only, and season standings stay with the coach until presentation.
What is a 3-2-1 vote in senior sport?
A 3-2-1 is the classic best-and-fairest format: after each match, players award 3, 2 and 1 votes to teammates. Kickd tallies the count automatically into a season leaderboard.
