We are thrilled to announce the Class of 2024, an outstanding group of athletes, builders, and trailblazers set to receive the Order of Sport, marking their induction into Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame. Spanning a wide array of sports, this diverse group encompasses a rich tapestry of talent, featuring dedicated community builders, innovative sport pioneers, exceptional athletes, and inspirational role models whose contributions transcend the boundaries of sport.
These remarkable individuals have not only achieved exceptional success in their respective fields but have also profoundly impacted their communities and the country. They use their platforms to advocate for causes that matter deeply to Canadians and their stories of perseverance, dedication, and innovation exemplify resilience and celebrate the transformative power of sport. The Class of 2024’s legacy inspires future generations to dream big, make a positive difference in the world, and strive for excellence, reinforcing the profound connection between sport and the Canadian spirit.
They were selected from over 234 public nominations and by a committee comprised of sports broadcasters, writers, academics and athletes, all for their ability to lead and inspire both on and off the field of play, for their sports accomplishments and in recognition of their continuing role in building Canada through sport and the value they return to their communities.
