The Nation's Capital, long regarded as a hot bed for basketball, past and present, took the ultimate step with the establishment of its own Hall of Fame. The Washington Metropolitan Basketball Hall of Fame gives recognition to worthy coaches, players, referees, executives and special contributors.
 
It should be no surprise to aficionados of the sport that Washington, D.C. is among the very few places to develop a permanent local shrine for those who helped to develop and popularize the hardwood sport. Established in 1981, the Washington Metropolitan Basketball Hall of Fame is administered by a Board of Directors comprised of civic leaders, school officials, media representatives, coaches and basketball-minded men and women from the Metropolitan area. The local Hall of Fame is associated with the Naismith Memorial National Basketball Hall of Fame located in Springfield, Massachusetts.
