The Ukrainian Footballer of the Year is an annual journalist award given by the Ukrainskiy Football ("Ukrainian Football") newspaper to the best professional Ukrainian footballer. From 1969 till 1990, the Ukrainian newspaper Molod Ukrainy ("Youth of Ukraine") conducted polls to determine the footballer of the year, and subsequently Ukrainskiy Football took over (which is published by the same publisher as Molod Ukrainy) from 1991.
There is also another award of the best footballer in the Ukrainian Premier League that was established in 1995 by the other newspaper Komanda. That award is not restricted to the Ukrainian nationals as in case of Ukrainian Football, but rather to the premier league players.

Famous quotes containing the word year:
“The first year was critical to my assessment of myself as a person. It forced me to realize that, like being married, having children is not an end in itself. You don’t at last arrive at being a parent and suddenly feel satisfied and joyful. It is a constantly reopening adventure.”
