Selection Process
Players are ranked based on their position and how they compare to other players in Super League of the same position.
The top performers are put into a final Team of the Month from which the Player of the Month panel then selects the women’s and men’s Errea Player of the Month.
The Player of the Month panel is made up of current England Senior Men’s coach, former Scotland player and now FIVB tutor Simon Loftus, former England Junior Women assistant coach and former England player Alex Smith and Volleyball England Strategic Manager (Talent) and former coach at all three levels of the USA’s NCAA Championship, John Forman.
Players can only be considered if a full HUDL analysis is completed, which is undertaken once clubs have uploaded live streams of their matches.
Home clubs are reminded that it is a Super League regulation for 2023-24 to upload a live stream of each match within 24 hours of a match finishing.
