Award presented in recognition of distinguished contributions

to the game of golf and one’s community

Hall of Fame Qualifications:

Excellence as a player is not a requisite or requirement for the award.

Persons suggested do NOT have to be fine players or well known. Their acts of distinguished sportsmanship should be over a period of years.

The award is NOT for contributions to the welfare of golf or for overcoming physical handicaps. Such elements may enter into consideration.

The award is simply for distinguished sportsmanship in golf and community in addition to distinguished unselfish contributions.

Sportsmanship can be defined as the demonstration of personal qualities that we practice in our daily lives. Thus, it is more nearly a manner and an attitude than it is a particular action, i.e., fair play, self-control and self-denial, generosity of spirit, manner of playing or behaving so as to show respect for all, and unselfishness.

The Process:
