Individuals | Teams | Sources

The Manitoba Golf Hall of Fame, established in 2003, is dedicated to the recognition of extraordinary contributions and accomplishments made by Manitobans who have brought honour and distinction to the game of golf as competitors, both amateur and professional, builders and superintendents.

To be considered for election to the Hall of Fame, a nominee must have made an extraordinary contribution to the game of golf and who are, or have at some time, been a resident of the Province of Manitoba. These achievements may be in the form of golfing accomplishments, an illustrious golf-related career, or some other exceptional contribution to the game. Nominees may be players, course designers/managers, administrators and others.
