History

The Greater Flint Area Sports Hall of Fame was created by the Bruin Club of Mott Community College in 1980. For over 40 years, the Hall of Fame has provided a vehicle for our community to recognize and celebrate the unsurpassed history of athletic achievement and community service that has been so much a part of the Flint area.
