This award was created in 2019 to recognize the individuals who have made extraordinary contributions to our sport. They may include tournament skiers, riders, innovators, industry leaders, officials and others responsible for landmark achievements in the development of water skiing & wake sports as well as those whose long periods of dedicated and generous service deserve special recognition. Even those who have later become famous outside the sport and others whose contributions have been in the form of resources or public relations are eligible for nomination for the Award of Distinction.
There is no requirement that a potential candidate be retired to receive consideration for the Award of Distinction, although preference is unlikely for skiers still competing even if he or she is a favorite to be elected to the Hall of Fame upon retirement. Those honored with the Award of Distinction remain eligible for nomination to the Hall of Fame. Nominations to be considered for the Award of Distinction award must be made by March 1st |
