Hall of Fame

Chapter Hall of Fame

Since 2005, the NorCal Chapter Hall of Fame has been honoring individuals who have made an impact on NorCal lacrosse in their field.

 

"Those who by their deeds as players, coaches, officials and/or contributors, and by the example of their lives, personify the great contribution of the sport of lacrosse to our way of life".

 

Nomination categories are: Player, Coach, Official, Administrator/Builder and Champion of the Game

Nominations are accepted all year with an end of May deadline for induction into that year's class.

*The Hall of Fame committee will not induct classes for 2021, 2022 or 2023 due to the COVID19 pandemic.
