An elite group of 1,734 players from 328 schools qualified for membership in the Society's 17th year. Nominated by their respective schools, members of the NFF Hampshire Honor Society must have:
- Completed their final year of playing in Fall 2022;
- Attained a minimum undergraduate cumulative GPA of 3.2 (4.0 scale);
- Met all NCAA/NAIA-mandated progress towards degree requirements; and
