Mulrooney Medal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Mulrooney Medal is an Australian rules football award for the best and fairest player in the AFL Canberra first-grade competition. It has been the premier individual award for Australian rules football in the Australian Capital Territory since 1936.[1] From 2011 to 2013, the medal was awarded to the best and fairest player in the Eastern Conference of the North East Australian Football League.[2]

It was named after football administrator John L. Mulrooney, for his contribution to Australian rules football in Canberra.[3]
