Amway Arena
6:30-8:30 PM

Hosted by:

The Central Florida Sports Hall of Fame is the continuation of a great regional sports tradition, through which over 70 Central Floridians have been honored for their distinguished accomplishments within professional and amateur sports since 1981.

It is with great excitement that the Central Florida Sports Commission partnered with the City of Orlando to create a permanent home for the Hall of Fame at the City's “crown jewel” facility, Amway Arena.

This year the Central Florida Sports Hall of Fame Committee inducted Nick Anderson, Pat Clarke, Pete Dunn and Chipper Jones into the Hall of Fame. More than one-hundred people were present to witness Central Florida sports history as we honored these four deserving inductees for their achievements and contributions to our sports landscape.
