Ballon d'Or Ceremony to Feature Equal Number of Awards for Men and Women

Posted : 19 May 2025

The Ballon d'Or ceremony on September 22 will, for the first time, present an equal number of awards to male and female players, with six honors each.
 

 New categories for women include best goalkeeper, best young player, and top scorer, alongside existing awards, plus the Socrates Award recognizing solidarity efforts open to all.

 
 Nominees will be revealed in early August, following last year’s controversy involving Real Madrid’s boycott over Vinicius Junior’s omission from the best men’s player award.
