Join us on December 14, 2024 for a night of celebration in honor of the Town of Miami Lakes Sports Hall of Fame Inductee Class of 2024!The Miami Lakes Sports Hall of Fame was created to honor athletes, coaches, community members, and teams from the Town of Miami Lakes for their outstanding contribution or achievement in sport. The Sports Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony is an annual event where the Town—through its Sports Hall of Fame Selection Committee—honors and recognizes individuals who have excelled in sport or in providing opportunities for other to experience great athletic programs in the Town.
We gather on one night to celebrate the current year inductees, their success and stories that have earned them a place in being memorized in Town history. Those in attendance include elected officials, past inductees, current inductees and their families plus as of last year we open the induction ceremony to the public to hear about these individuals and see their plaques go up on the hall of fame wall.
