"We are proud to continue our tradition of recognizing incredible Californians who have made outstanding contributions at the highest level in sports," said Christian Okoye, Founder, California Sports Hall of Fame. "The Class of 2019 truly embodies what sports is all about and we are excited to honor them during this special evening." The Class of 2019 was selected by a special committee, comprised of past California Sports Hall of Fame inductees and celebrity athletes, for their outstanding contributions to the world of sports in California and/or their ties to the state.
Many former inductees and sports celebrities have been invited to attend and participate in an auction featuring rare sports memorabilia. They will meet and greet guests and help welcome the Class of 2019. Invited past inductees include California sports celebrities. Proceeds will benefit student athletes.
