Ottawa Sport Hall of Fame

The Ottawa Sport Hall of Fame (Temple de la renommée du sport d'Ottawa) is a hall of fame dedicated to recognizing athletes and sportspeople associated with Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is located in the Heritage Building section of Ottawa City Hall, and includes over 270 inductees as of 2019.

History
The Ottawa Sport Hall of Fame opened in 1968, located at the Ottawa Civic Centre. It has since moved to the second floor of the Corel Centre in 2005, then to its current home at Ottawa City Hall in 2011. It is maintained by a volunteer board of directors, and enshrines its inductees into either athletes, builders or media member categories. Inductees are selected from community nominations, with consideration given to represent all sport contributions in Ottawa. It is a non-profit organization, and maintains memorabilia and commemorative plaques for more than 270 inductees as of 2019.
