By the time he left coaching in the 1950’s, Bee had already begun writing the Chip Hilton series, which is considered the top sports fi ction series ever written. In 1967, he was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfi eld, Mass., but his coaching infl uence remains intact today. He is credited with developing the 1-3-1 zone defense, the three-second rule and advocating the adoption of the NBA’s 24-second shot clock.

The Coach Clair Bee and Chip Hilton Awards were created by Chip Hilton Sports and the NCAA Foundation in 1996 as a way to honor the memory of Clair Bee, who had a great impact as a coach, administrator, innovator and teacher. The awards promote positive character in basketball, which were hallmarks of Bee and his teams. The Coach Clair Bee Award honors the active Division I men’s basketball coach who made the most signifi cant positive contribution to his sport during the preceding year. The winner refl ects the character and professional qualities of Bee, a Hall of Fame coach whom many consider the best technical basketball coach in history and a man who cared deeply about his players’ well-being. The criteria for the award involves actions that inspire, motivate, coach and educate their teams to achieve their fullest potential and demonstrate outstanding character. The Chip Hilton Award is given in recognition of a college player who meets the competitive and ethical standards that were the theme of the 24-book Chip Hilton series.
