The United States Curling AssociationHall of Fame was started in 1984 to recognize and honor individuals and teams that have achieved extraordinary distinction in curling or have made major contribution to the development of curling in the United States. It is operated by the United States Curling Association (USCA), the governing body for curling in the United States. The Hall of Fame is housed at the USCA headquarters in Stevens Point, Wisconsin.[1]
There have been 45 individuals and 4 teams inducted into the Hall of Fame.[2]
The Hall of Fame selection committee meets annually to choose inductees. Inductees are categorized into one of three categories: Curler recognizes an individual or team for their competitive success, Builder recognizes an individual for their contribution to curling in the United States, or Curler/Builder which recognizes an individual who has combined the two previous categories.[4]
