Pelican Rugby Hall of Fame Inductee Qualifications 

This is a list of items or qualified requirements that we feel should be incorporated in the individual that you are looking wanting to be inducted in the Pelican Hall of Fame.

  • Candidate must have been an Pelican athlete or administrator for the Club and this includes the Youth Rugby teams as well.

  • Candidate must have participated as an athlete or administrator for the club for a minimum of three calendar years or five seasons. A season represents a full fiscal year of the rugby season (Sept to Sept).

  • Candidates are first eligible to qualify five (5) years after they have started their first season. Eligibility never ends for candidates. Posthumous eligibility is immediate.

  • Nominations can be made by any Pelican past player or administrator.

  • Nominations must include full name, years played or administered, period for inclusion (as tenure may overlap), a scrapbook or other supporting documentation.

  • Nominations are accepted by the HOF Selection Committee from January 1 thru May 1 of the year the milestone reunion is being held (End of the Season Banquet).

  • All existing HOF members and HOF committee will vote on each nomination received.

  • A maximum of four (4) candidates can be inducted into HOF in each season.

  • The candidates must get 75% of the vote of the HOF Selection Committee.

  • All Hall of Fame members become members of the HOF Selection Committee but can opt out of voting so the 75% acceptance can be monitored.

  • Inductees will be announced by the beginning of May of that season and Hall of Fame inductee announcement will be made at the end of the season banquet (June).
