Cliff Kitchen is just the second person inducted into the Contributors category of the Manitoba Touch Football Hall of Fame. The criteria for the contributors category is as follows:

"To be considered for selection in the Contributor category, an individual must have contributed to the game significantly in areas outside of the competitive arena (i.e. administrator, league architect, innovator, instructor, coach etc.). Contributors have changed the game for the better and lay the groundwork for the future success of touch football in Manitoba."
