CALL TO COMMUNITY:

Any member of the ultimate community who is familiar with these candidates is encouraged to provide input and any comments you would like to be considered by the voting members of the Hall

For 2023, we’ll be collecting the community’s input using quantitative metrics by seeking your rating of the candidates on each of the Seven Ultimate Hall of Fame Characteristics identified and defined for each player division.

There is a separate Call to Community survey for each player division; please select the player division(s) and candidates with whom you are most familiar, follow the instructions, and provide your feedback.

Women’s division Call to Community

Open division Call to Community

Mixed division Call to Community

This feedback, both laudatory and critical, is an important part of the committee’s consideration. We encourage candid participation from all who have personal experience with the candidates. All feedback will be kept strictly confidential and will be available to eligible Hall voters as part of their deliberations. The ratings for the candidates will be shared should we get a sufficient response to these surveys.

From this final slate of 10 Open, 10 Women’s division, and 8 Mixed division player candidates, the eligible voting members of the Hall will cast their ballots for up to 5 Open division, up to 5 Women’s division, and up to 4 Mixed division players in 2 rounds of voting to select those individuals to be inducted into the Ultimate Hall of Fame. All final ballot player-candidates must achieve at least a 2/3^rds majority to be inducted into the Hall.

The CALL TO COMMUNITY survey will close on Sunday, July 16, 2023.

Thank you,
