The annual South Australian National Football League (SANFL) Mark of the Year competition (currently known for sponsorship reasons as the Skilled Careers Mark of the Year) is a sporting award that celebrates each season's best mark. A mark is the action of a player cleanly catching a kicked ball that has travelled more than 15 metres (49 ft) without the ball hitting the ground.
