Super League announce changes to voting system for Steve Prescott Man of Steel award

The Steve Prescott Man of Steel award will now be won on an average points per game basis for the first time.

The change to the voting system is due to the disruption caused to the fixture schedule by Covid-19 and the inability to guarantee that every club will play the same number of matches by the end of the season.

The revised scoring system is calculated by dividing the number of points attained by the player by the number of games played by that player’s team.

In line with the changes made to the league table, teams must play a minimum of 15 games for a player from that team to be considered.
