A-League Men Young Footballer of the Year

The A-League Men Young Footballer of the Year is an annual association football award given to the player aged 23 or under at the start of the season who has been judged to have had the best season of any young player in the A-League Men.

It is currently called the NAB Young Footballer of the Year for sponsorship purposes.

[1] The award has been presented since the 2005–06 season and the winner is chosen by a panel of experts and media representatives.

As of 2017, Mathew Ryan and Jamie Maclaren are the only players to have won the award on more than one occasion.

Players aged 23 or under at the start of the season remain eligible to win the Johnny Warren Medal, and in 2013 Rojas won both awards.

Marco Rojas is the only player to win the award while winning the Johnny Warren Medal in the same season.
Adrian Leijer was the second-ever recipient of the award.
