Q: "What is Hall of Fame Online?"

Q: "How do I make a hall of fame website accessible online?"

Q: "What content should an awards website include?"

"Start with an honoree directory, award categories, years/eras, photos and videos, sponsor recognition, and a simple nomination/selection narrative. Then add record boards, galleries, and timelines as you grow."

Q: "Can this work on a touchscreen and on the web?"

"Yes. The most effective programs use the same content model for both: touchscreen-friendly browsing on-site and a public online version for alumni, donors, and fans."

Intent: plan — Build an accessible awards website or hall of fame website that works online, looks great on a touchscreen, and stays easy to update.

Program Snapshot

Audience: alumni, fans, donors, families, students, and staff
Primary outcomes: public recognition, community pride, sponsor value, and year-round engagement
Cadence: annual awards + rolling updates (new inductees, new records, new media)
Featured honorees: inductees, award winners, teams, donors/sponsors, distinguished alumni

Content Architecture (what you publish, and how it’s organized)

Use a simple data model, then let navigation do the work:

People: inductees, alumni, coaches, donors (bio, achievements, media, tags)
Awards: category, criteria, year, winners, finalists, media
Teams & seasons: year, record, highlights, roster, photos/videos
Records/leaderboards: sport/activity, stat, rank, filters (year/era)
Sponsors: tier, placements, rotation schedule, CTA links

If you’re building from scratch, start with one great “entry template” and reuse it across every honoree type. If you’re migrating plaques, plan a bulk upload first.

Execution Timeline (Plan → Build → Launch → Refresh)

Plan (1–2 weeks): finalize categories, permissions, and the homepage story; define accessibility requirements (WCAG 2.1 AA).
Build (2–6 weeks): import content, choose layouts, set up navigation/search, and validate media sizing.
Launch (week of ceremony): publish a “launch collection” (top inductees + newest awards + sponsor loop), then announce.
Refresh (monthly/seasonal): schedule new content drops, rotate galleries, and review analytics for what visitors actually use.

Display Integration (online-first + touchscreen-ready)

Hall of Fame Online is designed for both contexts:

Online: public pages, shareable honoree links, mobile-friendly browsing.
On-site: kiosk mode, large-format readability, and simple browse/search experiences.
Remote management: scheduled publishing, cloud backups, and easy role-based updates.

Accessibility Checklist (quick wins that move you toward WCAG 2.1 AA)

Add descriptive link text (avoid “click here”).
Ensure keyboard navigation works (Tab/Shift+Tab + visible focus).
Maintain contrast for body text and buttons.
Write alt text for every meaningful image.
Keep touch targets large enough for kiosk use.

Copy/Paste Asset: Honoree Intake Checklist

Use this as a standard submission form for inductees and award winners:

Full name + preferred display name
Headshot + action photo (optional)
Award/category + year(s)
Short bio (75–125 words) + long bio (250–400 words)
Key achievements (3–7 bullets)
Media: 1–3 videos, 3–10 photos
Tags: sport/activity, era/decade, school/department, award type

What Users Are Saying About Rocket’s halls of fame

Don’t just take our word for it - hear from some of our satisfied users! Check out some of our testimonials below to see what others are saying about the Rocket halls of fame.

I wanted to share our veterans page with you. I actually won teacher of the year last year for bringing this program to the high school and community. We put out Facebook posts every few months asking the community to send me photos and service records of their or family members military service. We are basically archiving every alumni who has served. I have been given entire classes that revolve around using “the board” as we call it. The possibilities are endless. It has been a way to categorize and archive the history of our school. We will celebrate our towns 150th birthday next year and we plan to take a mobile board downtown to showcase the history of our school for this celebration. I also recently was the featured speaker at a district wide school board meeting and was able to showcase “the board” to everyone and received so much positive feedback.

Sarah Davies

Teacher @ Sweetwater High School

We researched several platforms and selected the Rocket team because of the ease of the user interface, end-user flexibility with the design, and responsiveness of the team. Multiple department heads have access to add material and it has been wonderful to see the creativity and stories come to life for so many things we would have never imagined.

Matt Buche

VP of Advancement @ Lafayette Catholic

Honestly, the [Rocket] software is the only one I have seen that actually functions as advertised in this category.

Scoreboard Company

Without a doubt in my mind I can tell you that Rocket’s framework is the way of the future in touchscreen displays. As someone who is very thorough, technologically savvy, and a technological native myself, I had Zoom calls with multiple interactive display companies before contracting with one, and none of them compare with the flexibility and innovativeness of Rocket. The autosave, Google-like framework, and flexibility of the software program is what sets it apart. Most other companies require you to build a software program that is preset with the tabs and settings, and if you want to change or add to those tabs it is an additional fee and a hassle to change. With Rocket you essentially control anything and everything live and from the cloud.
