The Canada Games Council (CGC) invites Canadians to celebrate sporting excellence and outstanding achievement on and off the field of play by nominating acclaimed Canada Games alumni for the 2025 Hall of Honour.

The Hall of Honour recognizes exceptional Canada Games alumni who have sparked greatness by distinguishing themselves during the Games and beyond, while contributing to the growth of the Canada Games Movement. Nominees are eligible for induction in one of three categories:

Athletes:

The athlete category recognizes past Canada Games athletes who have achieved significant success in national and/or international competition. Nominees should also have demonstrated support for the Canada Games through promotional events, community engagement or other meaningful activities. Nominees must be inactive.

Builders:

The builder category recognizes past coaches, managers, officials, administrators, volunteers, mission staff, sponsors or members of the media who have made outstanding efforts and had an immeasurable impact for more than 10 years within the Canada Games Movement. Nominees may be active or inactive.

Distinguished Alumni:

The distinguished alumni category recognizes any individual who has participated in a previous Canada Games (as an athlete, coach, manager, or technical support personnel) and has since gone on to meaningful accomplishments in a field other than sport. Nominees exemplify the highest levels of ethical leadership in their profession and their community.

To nominate an athlete, builder or distinguished alumni for the Hall of Honour, please complete the nomination form no later than February 20, 2024.

The class of inductees will be welcomed into the Hall of Honour prior the 2025 Canada Summer Games in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador. Details on the Hall of Honour induction celebration will be shared at a later date.
