Beginning in 2018, the Canadian Soccer Association began awarding only one youth player of the year award for each gender to a U20 player. In 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was awarded to a U23 player instead. Until 2017, they had awarded two awards to each gender - one for a U17 and another for a U20 player.
