In the past 24 years, 130 Pacificans have been inducted into the City of Pacifica Sports Hall of Fame (PSHOF).

This year's PSHOF awards dinner will be held Saturday, Feb. 22 at the Grosvenor Hotel in South San Francisco. It is expected five more persons will be welcomed as members of the 2014 Class.

The public is invited to submit candidates for consideration of nomination into the PSHOF. Each October the nominating committee meets to select the candidates for the February event. Nominations in letter form must be received by Sept. 21.

The public is encouraged to submit names of qualified candidates with some background information on the candidate not just their name.
