Answer : MOST VALUABLE PLAYER (MVP)
In sports, a most valuable player (MVP) award is an honor typically bestowed upon an individual as the most performing player (or players) in an entire league, for a particular competition, or on a specific team. Initially used in professional sports, the term is now also commonly used in amateur sports, as well as in other unrelated fields such as media, business, music, and multiplayer video games. In many sports, MVP awards are presented for a specific match—in other words, a player of the match award. This is particularly true for high profile matches like championship games.
The term is most common in the United States and Canada. In most other countries around the world, “player of the year” is used for a season-spanning award and “player of the match” for individual games. In Australia, Australian rules football clubs and leagues use the term “best and fairest”, while those playing rugby league use “player of the year”, such as the Dally M Medal. The National Basketball League, however, uses the American-style “MVP” for its awards.
Examples include:
- Major League Baseball’s American and National Leagues, AL & NL Championship Series, and World Series; also All-Star Game
- National Football League regular season and Super Bowl; also Pro Bowl
- Hart Memorial Trophy and Lester B. Pearson/Ted Lindsay Award (National Hockey League regular season) and Conn Smythe Trophy (playoffs); the All-Star Game also has an MVP
- National Basketball Association regular season and Finals; also NBA All-Star Game
- Woman National Basketball Association regular season and Finals
- Major League Soccer regular season and MLS Cup; also MLS All-Star Game
- Canadian Football League regular season, East Division, West Division, and Grey Cup; also “Most Valuable Canadian” awards for the regular season and Grey Cup
