2012 Nominations
Nominations for the Class of 2012 Berkshire Baseball Hall of Fame as well the Loretta Magary Memorial Community Service Award are now being accepted.
Nominations are now being accepted for the Berkshire Baseball Baseball Hall of Fame, class of 2012.
Anyone who has worn a Berkshire Baseball uniform is eligible to be nominated and anyone is allowed to submit a nomination for someone else.  However, as with any Hall of Fame, there is a certain minimum criteria that must be met for an individual to be considered for induction to the Berkshire Baseball Hall of Fame.

 

Players, coaches and administrators are eligible for nomination.  Players, coaches and administrators must have been involved with the organization a minimum of three years. Players who are still playing for one of the Berkshire Baseball youth programs (10-U, 12-U, 13-U, 14-U 16-U and 18-U) are not eligible for nomination.   Players who are still currently playing for either of the Optimist or 28-Over teams are eligible for nomination even if they are still currently playing.  Someone other than the individual being nominated must submit a written nomination in order for an individual to be considered for induction.  The nomination letter can include statistics and on field accomplishments, but most importantly it should outline how the nominee has had a positive impact on the Berkshire Baseball organization both on and off the field.  Nomination letters must be signed and contact information of the individual submitting the nomination must be provided so that the Hall of Fame Committee can verify the nomination.  Anonymous nomination letters will not be considered.

 

Nomination letters for the class of 2012 should be received by the Hall of Fame Induction Committee no later than August 1, 2012 in order to be considered for induction.

Nomination letters should be sent to the following address:

In addition, nominations are also being accepted for the 2012 Loretta Magary Community Service Award.  Nominations should be submitted in writing with a brief outline of community service activities that the nominee has been or is currently involved with.  Any player that is currently involved in the Berkshire organization is eligible to be nominated.
