This organization was founded in 2001 to promote the community benefits of athletic competition by recognizing and honoring individuals and teams who have made a significant contribution to the Helena community through excellence in sports.
The Great Northern Town Center area is host to our outdoor displays. They are between the Carousel and Exploration Works (interactive museum of science and culture).

Information for Submitting Nominations
Helena Sports Hall of Fame is accepting nominations.
How do our inductees get here selected:
1. Your name is submitted to HSHOF by someone in the community who felt you were worthy of this honor. Nominations are kept in the active file until they are inducted or fail to receive votes for multiple years.(check the flow code on the back of the program which will take you to our website)
2. A selection committee is chosen from a group of about 150 volunteer community members pool, by a bean draw by the Board. It is anonymous (secret) group – only 3 people from the Board will know who is chosen to be on the selection committee. HSHOF Board members are not on the selection committee. We are always looking for volunteers to serve in the selection pool.
