From 2008 to 2013, "the awards was organized by," sports news/media website SportSport.ba and broadcast on NTV Hayat and was expanded to include many other award categories. Edin Džeko won three Idol Nacije awards in a row. Vedad IbiÅ”eviÄ and Asmir BegoviÄ were the only other winners. From 2010 awards, it was decided that former player Muhamed KonjiÄ would nominate 10 players for the main award of player of the year.
