The Southern California Jewish Sports Hall of Fame, in Beverly Hills, California, is a hall of fame dedicated to honoring American Jewish athletes, other sports personalities, and teams from Southern California who have distinguished themselves in sports.[1]
The Hall of Fame was established in 1990 by a group of men and women organized by former All-America basketball player Eli Sherman.[2][3][4][5][6] It is located in Bel Air, California, at the American Jewish University.[7][8] It honors Southern California Jewish athletes, coaches, officials, media, executives, and others at both professional and non-professional levels.[3][9] It also supports the Maccabiah Games in Israel, JCC Maccabi Games, and the Allan Malamud Memorial Scholarship Fund.[3]
It has honored over 300 Jewish men, women, and teams.[3] Inductees have included (for example) swimmers Mark Spitz and Lenny Krayzelburg, baseball Hall of Famer Sandy Koufax, all-around athlete Lillian Copeland, water polo player Merrill Moses, tennis players Brian Teacher and Stacy Margolin, and football coach Sid Gillman.[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]
