About

Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame is a registered charitable organization and has been a vital cultural institution in Canada for more than 68 years. As Canada’s only national museum of sport, the organization’s mandate is to celebrate Canada’s sport heroes who have reached the pinnacle of their careers and are going “beyond the win” and making monumental contributions to our society – helping to build Canada through the transformative power of sport.  Through three guiding pillars; curation, education, and recognition, Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame is driven by a purpose of inspiring the leaders of tomorrow through the invaluable lessons of sport. In the community, in the classroom, and in recognizing role models.

Over 700 Hall of Famers have been inducted into Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame since its establishment in 1955 and as of 2019, the Order of Sport, Canada’s highest sporting honour, is awarded as part of Induction to Canada’s top athletes and builders for their ongoing role in building Canada through the transformative power of sport.

Through community partnerships, Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame is able to provide exciting and tangible opportunities for Canadians to connect with the incredible stories and experiences of Athletes and Builders of sport in Canada. As the organization moves towards more digital and travelling exhibits, these rich stories will reach more and more Canadians than ever before; ensuring these experiences are relevant, engaging, and current and effectively educate Canadians on the invaluable lessons of sport.
