Nat Moore
During his 13 years as standout member of the Miami Dolphins, Nat Moore broke almost every career receiving record for the team and remained the all-time leading Dolphins receiver until the 1991 season. After playing college football for University of Florida, he was a third round draft pick for the Dolphins in 1974. Nat played in Super Bowls XVII and XIX, started the 1977 Pro Bowl, and still stands second on the Dolphins all-time career receiving touchdowns list with 74.
Establishing a reputation on and off the field led Nat to be named the 1984 NFL “Man of the Year,” an honor bestowed on the player who gives outstanding service to his community, and earned him the 1986 Byron White Humanitarian Award for his service to his team, community and country.
Since retiring from professional football in 1987, Nat has dedicated himself to giving back to the community where he grew up and found tremendous support throughout his career. With a strong history of charity work behind him, he launched a sports promotion and event management firm, running fundraisers and celebrity golf tournaments for a dozen meaningful organizations, such as the Ronald McDonald House Charities and Florida Memorial College.
Since its inception, the Nat Moore Foundation has dispersed more than $1,000,000 to various youth and social service organizations in South Florida, primarily through revenues from the Cannon Florida Classic. This celebrity golf tournament partners area residents with sports and entertainment greats for a day on the golf course, as well as a weekend of memorable events including a party and auction.
Retirement has not taken Nat away from football. As the Executive Director of the Pro Bowl Football Clinic, he brings NFL stars and children together for fun, football, and education. He continues his work with the Miami Dolphins as the Director of Alumni, Youth & Special Projects and pre-season broadcast analyst on WFOR, Miami’s local CBS affiliate. Nat supports his alma mater, the University of Florida, as a color analyst on Sun Sports during the Gator football season.
