EspañolDANISH FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION
The 'Danish Football Association' (DBU) (Danish: ''Dansk Boldspil-Union'') is the governing body of football in Denmark. It is the organization of the Danish football clubs and runs the professional Danish football leagues and the men's and women's national teams. It is based in Brøndby, and is a founding member of both FIFA and UEFA. DBU was founded in 1889, but did not register games officially before the 1908 Summer Olympics. This means, that the win in the 1906 Intercalated Olympics tournament was not officially recorded by DBU.

Yearly honours
DBU awards the best national team players each year, with an award to the best senior team player, as well as the best player in three of DBU's six national youth teams.
Player of the Year
Main articles: Danish Player of the Year
Since 1963, DBU has awarded the Danish ''Player of the Year'' in a vote amongst the Danish players. In the time of amateur football, only players in the domestic league could achieve the prize, and even after the emergence of paid football in 1978, no players in foreign clubs were eligible for the award. When the award was finally opened to all Danish players, domestic and abroad, in 1983, national team captain Morten Olsen was the first player to win the ''Player of the Year'' award taking all Danish players into consideration. The record number of award wins is four, by Brian Laudrup (1989, 1992, 1995, and 1997).
Young Players of the Year
Sponsored by Arla Foods, the awards were initially known as ''Mælkens talentpriser'' (the milk's talent awards) in order to promote the line of dairy products of the company then known as "MD Foods". DBU found new sponsor DONG (later DONG Energy), an oil company, in 2004 but Arla went on to sponsor the prize which was renamed ''Arla's talentpriser'' (Arla's talent awards) in 2005.[1][2]
