NOMINATION AND VOTING
How Are Nominees Selected?

Nominations are submitted by the public. BOA may review nominations to ensure they meet category guidelines and comply with fairness and integrity standards before finalizing nominees.

The general answer would be No, you can’t nominate yourself but you can nominate someone else. Nominees are selected through a wide variety of guidelines met and and a screening process after we have received a good amount of submissions for the person, firm, organization or entity from the fans globally.

Nominations typically open during our official season. You can submit a nomination through the official nomination form before the deadline on our website, provided the nomination meets category requirements and follows BOA guidelines.
