The aims of the Football Australia Hall of Fame (founded in 1999 as the Soccer Hall of Fame)[1] are to celebrate and highlight the achievements of retired players and other participants who have contributed significantly to the game.[2] These are made up of either Australian and/or non-Australian footballers, managers and other participants who have become significant figures in the history of the game in Australia. New members are generally added each year.
Selection
[edit]All nominees must be Australian citizens. For non-players, inclusion is based on criteria including and "overall sustained contribution to the game".
Awards
[edit]Originally, there were several categories based on the nature of an individual's contribution, including:
- Hall of Champions (players) / Hall of Honour (non-players)
- Medal of Excellence (players) / Roll of Honour (non-players)
- Award of Distinction (players) / Roll of Honour (non-players)
