2025 Hall of Fame & Distinguished Service Awards Nominations Open

Baseball Queensland is proud to announce that nominations are now open for two of its most esteemed honours – the Baseball Queensland Hall of Fame and the Distinguished Service Award. These recognitions shine a spotlight on those who have significantly shaped the game in Queensland, both on and off the field.

 

 

 

The Hall of Fame acknowledges individuals—players, coaches, and umpires—who have demonstrated outstanding on-field excellence. Nominees must show a record of high-level achievement through state, national, or international representation, individual awards, or historical impact on the sport.

 

Nominators are reminded

 

– All submissions must include clear supporting evidence—such as statistics, awards, testimonials, or documented achievements.

 

– Eligibility criteria must be reviewed thoroughly to ensure the nominee qualifies.  See HOF ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA here.

 

– If a previous nominee has not been inducted, you are encouraged to nominate them again and include further evidence to strengthen their case.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In a further celebration of baseball’s unsung heroes, Baseball Queensland continues to recognise long-term contributions to the game through the Distinguished Service Award.

 

This honour is designed to acknowledge exceptional service, commitment, and dedication to baseball across all levels—including coaching, administration, officiating, and volunteering. It aims to recognise those who may not meet Hall of Fame criteria, but whose legacy and impact are undeniable.

 

Selection criteria include

– Longevity and consistency of service

– Demonstrated leadership and innovation

– A positive influence on the growth of baseball in Queensland communities

 

 

 

See DSA ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA here.

 

 

 

 The Distinguished Service Award is announced at the annual Baseball Queensland Hall of Fame and Awards Ceremony, with recipients presented a medal and certificate in recognition of their contributions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Baseball Queensland looks forward to receiving a diverse array of nominations that reflect the breadth and depth of talent and dedication within Queensland’s baseball community.
