Elysium
Revision as of 01:37, 25 July 2020 by CLG Rampage (talk | contribs)
Elysium is a display encircling the field of The Frostlands in Yellowknife, Canada, honoring former players and personnel who have made outstanding contributions to the Yellowknife Wraiths football organization. The Wing of Honor began in 2025 (S10), with the induction of Antoine Delacour, who had announced he would be retiring at the end of that season. Delacour was inducted prior to kickoff of the Hawks' week twelve game against the San Jose Sabercats.
The Wing of Honor is particularly important for the Hawks, as the organization does not approve the retiring of jersey numbers. This means induction to the Wing of Honor is the highest accolade the Hawks can bestow upon their players and personnel.
