USA Karate Hall of Fame
The proposed nominated Class of 2021/2022 for the USA Karate Hall of Fame. This list in not 100% complete and names can be added up to four (4) weeks before the 2021/2022 Induction Ceremony. We are honoring past national athletes, USA Team members, national and international coaches, officials and administrators from the AAU Karate Program, USA Karate Federation (USAKF) and the USA National Karate-do Federation (USA-NKF).
A new category was added to the USA Karate Hall of Fame in 2019, the Olympic Karate Pioneer Award. This is presented to those individuals who over the decades help karate attain Olympic recognition and status.
Nominees must be in attendance at the 2021/2022 Hall of Fame ceremony to be inducted.
We are proud to announce the USA Karate Hall of Fame Class for 2021/2022
