And while the annual induction ceremony won’t be as filled with new enshrinements as 2022’s three-class event, it still promises to be a special night for all involved.
Nominations can take place in the athlete, team and builder categories, with the deadline for nominations set for Apr. 30.
Athlete nominations should be a person, living or deceased, who has demonstrated character, sportsmanship and integrity in addition to outstanding ability and achievement in their sport. Athletes must have been retired from active participation beyond the provincial level in the sport for three years.
Builder nominations shall be a person living or deceased whose service has made an exceptional contribution to a sport or sports. A builder can be a coach, official, administrator, volunteer, media and sports medicine whose works over an extended period of time have been outstanding and have brought honour to themselves and Moose Jaw and District.
Team nominations shall be two or more people, living or deceased, who have won a provincial, regional, national, world or Olympic championship. Special consideration will be given to those who have reached maximum level of excellence in their field. Teams nominated must wait three years before being eligible for induction.
All nominees must be a Moose Jaw native or have substantial connections to Moose Jaw and District, or in the case of teams, must have been based in Moose Jaw and District during the period for which the outstanding performance is claimed.
