Gateway Sports Hall of Fame | Nominating Procedures
VERY IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
The Gateway Sports Hall of Fame has changed part of it's nominating procedures. If you want to nominate an athlete, coach or other, do the research and submit your nomination along with an outline or paragraph as to why this person warrants consideration. Your narrative should be in good English and should include a detailed discussion of your nominee. Submit the year of graduation, sports participated in, statistics if available, awards earned and any other information that you develop regarding your nominee. These procedures would also be in effect for team nominations. The nominating committee has already developed a working list of nominees. This list will be updated often. The more information that is available regarding the nominee's career, the better chance that the nominee could be considered for nomination. Since five athletes are inducted each year, and a working list of nominee's already exists, be patient, it may take some time for your nominee to be considered.
In the beginning, we had many participates on our committees. As the years go on, we seem to have lost some interest. If you are a Gateway graduate and want to possibly be added to the selection committee, please contact Tony Petrocelli. We currently only have one female on the selection committee. So girls, give me a call. The selection committee meets once or twice a year. Beginning in 2002, if you are a selection committee member, you must attend the selection meeting. No absentee ballots. If there is a tie, you must be present to vote on the tie breaker. Materials will be given out at least two weeks before the selection meeting so that each individual member has time to do their own research on the nominees.
