:: SPORT AUSTRALIA HALL OF FAME :: Recognising Australia's greatest athletes and providing scholarships to Australia's youth

*************************

“When considering the stature of an athlete or for that matter any person, I set great store in certain qualities which I believe to be essential in addition to skill. They are that the person conducts his of her life with dignity, with integrity, courage, and perhaps most of all, with modesty. These virtues are totally compatible with pride, ambition, and competitiveness.”

Sir Donald Bradman speaking at his induction into The Sport Australia Hall of Fame, 1985

ABOUT THE SPORT AUSTRALIA HALL OF FAME SCHOLARSHIPS

View Full List

The Sport Australia Hall of Fame seeks to inspire all Australians through sport. By recognising our great sporting accomplishments and traditions, we aim to motivate young Australians to maximise life's great opportunities. The Sport Australia Hall of Fame Scholarship is one such opportunity.

To help young Australians reach the highest level of their sport, the SAHOF Scholarship Program, first introduced in 2006, provides encouragement and funding over 12 months. In addition, scholarship holders will enjoy personal mentoring from a current Hall of Fame Member. Our members represent the essence of achievement, known as the Spirit of Sport' and their experiences and values will be inspirational to our young sports people.

Each scholarship package consists of:

·	Mentoring support from a Hall of Fame Member for 12 months
·	A grant of $5000 presented at The Sport Australia Hall of Fame Annual Dinner and Induction Ceremony in Melbourne each year
·	Participation in development and leadership workshops
·	An invitation to SAHOF events in their state
·	A recognition certificate
