p1. How To Be An Inductee?
To qualify for induction into the Martial Arts Legends Hall of Fame™, a martial artist must be supported by ten (10) individuals who purchase and attend the Gala Ceremony in honor of the inductee ($375 per attendee).
This community-based support serves as the validation process, ensuring the inductee’s legacy is recognized beyond the local level and formally documented worldwide.
Gala participation supports the induction ceremony, awards, digital encyclopedia features, printed Encyclopedia publication, and ongoing public access to the MALHOF platform.
Once a nominee is identified, a MALHOF Councilor will guide the inductee through the full induction process.
