Hall of Fame
Since 1922, the Knights of Columbus International Bowling Association have efficiently served the game of Ten Pin Bowling in our Order in 40 of the 50 States and Canada. The contributions of many of our members in both bowling abilities and administration of the game of bowling, have greatly aided in achieving the high standards in the sport of bowling that it enjoys today in the Knights of Columbus.
In our 95th year of Knights of Columbus International Bowling Association, the Hall of Fame honors these men and women for the many contributions to the Association and to bowling in general. The following bowlers have been inducted into the Hall of Fame as follows:
