English term or phrase: POTT - Player of the tournament
We need a creative idea from you if possible!!

Within a football website (designed by us) there is a section for POTT - Player of the tournament.

Our issue is fitting this very long term into our navigation. In English it's a struggle for space, but for Greek / Russian it's impossible!


So the suggestion is to abbreviate it so in English it will be "POTT". We will have a flash panel on POTT that will explain it clearer to the user on the homepage so the top nav is only really for location in the site.

What would this be abbreviated in Greek?
