NOMINATE
Nomination Information
​
The Alberta Sports Hall of Fame functions as both a Hall of Fame and a Museum. The Hall of Fame has inducted over 1600 members since its inception in 1957. Alberta has many incredible athletes, builders of sport and volunteers that have the potential to be recognized and honoured for their contributions.
​
A nomination and selection process for induction into the Hall of Fame is held every year. Individuals are nominated by the general public through an open nomination process. The final selection of Inductees is determined by a Selection Committee. Nominees are categorized as Athletes, Builders, and Teams. There are also four awards that can be presented: Pioneer Award, Achievement Award, Legacy Award and the Bell Memorial Award.
​
The selected Inductees are announced to the public every fall and celebrated at the annual gala. This Induction Banquet is open to the public and includes Honoured Member alumni, Government officials, Sport Organizations, Sporting Teams, and of course family and friends of the new Inductees. The event not only honours these great Albertans but it recognizes the importance of sport in our lives and communities.
