More on Most Valuable Player
Description from Wikipedia:
In sports, a Most Valuable Player (MVP) award is an honor typically bestowed upon the best performing player or players on a specific team, in an entire league, or for a particular contest or series of contests. Initially used in professional sports, the term is now also commonly used in amateur sports, as well as in other completely unrelated fields of endeavor such as business and music awards.
The term "Most Valuable Player" is most often used in the United States. In many sports, some MVP awards are presented just for a specific game or match (in other words, a man of the match award), while others are awarded based on an entire season or year. The gender neutral term "Player of the Match" is usually substituted for "Man of the Match" in women's team competitions.
Specific North American examples include (first regular season, then playoffs):
* Major League Baseball Most Valuable Player Award and World Series MVP Award
* National Football League Most Valuable Player Award and Super Bowl MVP Award
* National Hockey League Lester B. Pearson Award and Hart Trophy (regular season) and Conn Smythe Trophy (playoffs)
* National Basketball Association Most Valuable Player Award and National Basketball Association Finals Most Valuable Player Award
* Women's National Basketball Association Most Valuable Player Award and Women's National Basketball Association Finals Most Valuable Player Award
One award is commonly referred to as an "MVP" award, despite the fact that its official name does not match the "MVP" initialism:
*NCAA Basketball Tournament Most Outstanding Player Award
