Morrish Medal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Morrish Medal is an Australian rules football award.

Formerly awarded to the best and fairest in the VFL under 19 competition. Since 1992 the award has been given to the best player in the Victorian TAC Cup under 18 competition.

The Morrish Medal was named in honour of Tom Morrish, a long-serving treasurer of the VFL Reserve Grade.

The award is voted by the field umpires in a 3-2-1 format at the conclusion of each match as is used in the AFL's Brownlow Medal.
