The closing date for nominations is Friday, April 30. More than 6,500 student athletes have worn the Knights uniform since the college was established in 1967. Many coaches and volunteers have guided these student athletes and assisted the college s athletic department in providing the best programs possible. Niagara College athletes have developed a reputation for excellence across Ontario and Canada. Participating in athletics at the college level requires a great deal of commitment, said Ray Sarkis, assistant, Athletics and Recreation.
Athletes strive for a level of achievement and gain a lifelong bond with their teammates.
Coaches and volunteers can take pride in helping these athletes succeed. It s a pleasure to see all of our inductees recognised for their hard work and dedication.

The day will include varsity home games at the Welland Campus gymnasium, followed by dinner and the induction ceremony in the After Hours Student Centre.
