Information About

Fifa Order Of Merit




Most awards have been given to individuals. On FIFA's centennial congress they made one award for every decade of their existence. These awards were also handed out to fans, organisations, clubs, and one to African Football . These were referred to as the FIFA Centennial Order of Merit.

The winner doesn't have to be directly involved with football to recive it. One such notable non footballing personality was Nelson Mandela who won it for bringing South Africa back to international football.

The next awards are due to be annouced on the 11th September 2005 at the 55th FIFA Congress at Marrakesh in Morroco .
