Sporting Hall of Fame Nominations Open

The Liberal Government is committed to encouraging active and healthy lifestyles.

Our sporting heroes provide inspiration and encouragement, which is why it's so important they are given the recognition they deserve.

The Tasmanian Sporting Hall of Fame honours outstanding Tasmanian sportspeople who have represented our state and the nation with distinction.

The 2014 nominations for the Tasmanian Sporting Hall of Fame are open.

To be considered a person must:

Have achieved outstanding performance in sporting competition while either identifying themselves as Tasmanian or acknowledging Tasmania as their home;
Have participated in open competition at the highest level of their sport;
Be retired from that level of competition for a minimum of four years; and
Have exhibited a standard of behaviour that is fair, ethical and above reproach in relation to the rules and regulations of their sport and the community's expectations.

Nominations close on September 26, an awards ceremony will be held in November.
