Enshrinees Voting

The first charter class will consist of twenty individuals, plus one team. The public will elect fourteen of the charter members, and the Advisory Committee will elect six individuals and the team. After the first charter class has been elected and enshrined, each year ten individuals and one team will be elected. The public will elect seven enshrinees and the Advisory Committee will elect three enshrinees and the team.

 

Veteran Inductees

The Advisory Committee is responsible for ensuring all Wichita sports figures from the turn of the century to the 1960s and all sports figures who were behind the scenes, in ownership, management, coaching, or another facet of sports, have a means to be elected to the Wichita Sports Hall of Fame. Also, the Advisory Committee is responsible for all voting and nominations being done in a fair and respectable manner. The Advisory Committee shall be responsible for breaking any ties in the nomination or voting process.

 

Voting Ballots

Voting ballots must be typed or printed legibly on the voting ballots provided by the Wichita Sports Hall of Fame and returned to the Hall of Fame. Voting ballots can be reproduced by computer. Ballots received by email are allowed, however, only one email ballot per month with the same email address will count toward total votes counted. This will allow each family member with the same email address, to vote.

 

No "ballot box stuffing" will be allowed. People voting may submit one voting ballot per month. They may vote for the same athlete on each ballot, but only one voting ballot per month. The Advisory Committee is responsible to oversee that voting is done in a fair manner. The Advisory Committee is also responsible for breaking any ties that may occur in the voting process.

 

Those receiving the most votes will be enshrined in the Wichita Sports Hall of Fame.

 

Induction Ceremonies

Inductees will be announced in May of each year, with induction ceremonies held after the election is complete, in the summer of each year.
