Reminder, only members of the Board of Directors may submit nominations. If you received a link to this form and you are not a member of the Board of Directors, please contact your Instructor/Regional Director.
Each Director may submit one nominee in each category.
Please be as detailed as possible in the description box; this will aid the members of the Board when it is time to vote as more detailed information will help voters understand why a nominee should be selected. Those who do not provide some substantative detail as to why someone should receive this nomination are not likely to get proper attention and may miss out on deserved recognition.
Reminder - the Board of Directors, on March 26, 2020, approved the following criteria for nominees for the WTSDA Hall of Fame:
1. No self-nominations for Master of the Year. Any Master who is a member of the Board of Directors, to be nominated, the nomination must come from another Director.
2. Instructor of the Year is reserved for Sam Dans and below; must have valid instructor certification.
3. Student of the Year is reserved for Sam Dams and below who have not been invited to Master’s clinic, and below.
4. Dojang of the Year: the dojang must be in operation for at least three (3) years.
5. The only category that may be given to more than one person is the Family of the Year (but it is reserved for ONE family); all other categories are to be individuals, not groups.
6. Family of the Year must have at least 3 students/instructors/Masters.
7. Ineligible for receipt of multiple categories in same year (includes Master of the Year or Instructor of the Year for dojang owners). In the event an individual is nominated for more than one category, these nominees will be reviewed by the Executive Committee for proper categorization or it may be treated as an invalid nomination (if appropriate) due to lack of conformance with these rules.
Any submissions which violate the above outlined rules will not be considered valid nominations!
