The country may be going to the polls next Thursday, but before then it's time to vote in the annual Player of the Year awards, and as always we will be collating your votes for the Young Player of the Year.

Introduced in 2002, the Young Player of the Year award can be won by any U's player under the age of 24 at the turn of the year, and was last season awarded to Marc Tierney. Previous winners have also been Dean Gerken (twice), John White, Greg Halford, Pat Baldwin and Kem Izzet (twice).
