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.
Hall of Fame Committee:
- Hall of Fame Chairman selects her committee
The Process:
- Resumes may be obtained from the EDWGA Hall of Fame chairman, or any club
representative.
- EDWGA member nominates a particular person who meets the qualifications for this honor.
- EDWGA member gives resume form to candidate to complete.
- Candidate returns resume to member as soon as possible, who in turn submits it to the
Hall of Fame Chairman. Deadline would be June or early July.
- Hall of Fame committee reviews resumes.
- Hall of Fame ceremony takes place in September or October.
- Hall of Fame committee coordinates the induction ceremony with the EDGA.
- There is no set number of year(s) when the induction ceremony would take place, as it
all depends on the quality of candidates submitted as to who would meet qualifications.
