The hound should be retired and have not entered a trial in the last five years. The hound should have great coursing accomplishments, including a long coursing career with a top-winning record, however, great achievement in a short time span will be considered. The committee will then select ten hounds to be voted on by delegates convening at the ensuing ACoD. In the event that there are not at least ten hounds nominated by clubs, the Hall of Fame Committee will nominate however many additional hounds are necessary to bring the total to ten. The Committee will first consider hounds previously nominated and not elected, but may also nominate hounds not previously nominated. Three hounds will be chosen by written ballot. A picture and biographical sketch of each hound elected into the Hall of Fame will be entered into the appropriate historian's album. Each recipient will receive a certificate.

Recommendations should be submitted on the form provided for this purpose and signed by the appropriate Regional Director and sent to the appropriate Committee Chair no later than the date selected by the committee and published in FAN for that year. The nominee may be deceased or may be living but no longer active in lure coursing. A biographical sketch must be submitted to the Hall of Fame Committee for evaluation. The Hall of Fame Committee shall select three nominees to be voted on by the delegates at the ensuing ACoD. One person will be elected by written ballot.
