Please consider submitting a nomination for the NASSS Service Excellence Award. The award is presented at our annual meeting to an individual who has offered distinguished service and long-time contributions to the North American Society for the Sociology of Sport, and/or the area of the sociology of sport more generally.

To nominate someone, submit a one to two-page statement, in the form of a letter, about a nominee whom you believe is a worthy recipient of this award. The letter should describe in some detail the reasons why NASSS should recognize the recipient. Self-nominations are welcome.

Criteria include, but are not limited to:

• Service to NASSS as an organization
• Scholarly impact on the field through the discipline of the sociology of sport

Process:

• Nominations may be submitted by an individual, or jointly by a group of individual NASSS members.
