New Honors at Hockey Northern Territory: Introducing the Hall of Fame and Life Membership Updates

In line with Hockey Northern Territory's (HNT) strategic plan to honour remarkable contributions and achievements in hockey, we are excited to announce the reinvigoration of the Life Membership category and the introduction of a new Hall of Fame category. These announcements will be a highlight of this year’s Annual Awards dinner at the Mindil Beach Casino Resort, September 8th 2024 (more details to be announced shortly).

Revitalising Life Membership:

Since the last Life Member was inducted in 2002/03, there has been a hold on recognising the long-standing service and exceptional achievements within our community. As part of our commitment to enhancing recognition and rewards within HNT, we are looking to revitalise this prestigious honour.

Launching the Hall of Fame:

The newly established Hall of Fame will honour individuals whose achievements have significantly contributed to the sport, both nationally and internationally. This initiative aims to acknowledge those who have elevated the profile of Hockey NT and inspired future generations

Nomination and Selection Process:

The call for nominations for both Life Memberships and Hall of Fame inductions is now open and will close on June 28th. Nominations must be initiated via the designated leadership of club and affiliate associations, if you would like someone to be considered please contact your club or association leadership to discuss. A special board meeting is scheduled for July 30th where eligible nominees will be voted on by the members. Successful nominees will be personally contacted and invited to the awards dinner, where they will be formally recognised.
