USSSA NJ HALL OF FAME
ABOUT
This is the highest honor USSSA NJ can give. The first USSSA NJ Hall of Fame Inductions started in 1994 and is done annually. There was a hiatus but the yearly banquets are back in full force. There are so many deserving ball players, directors and umpires that still need to be honored. We are doing our best to make sure everyone deserving gets recognized. The Hall of Fame is the place where we honor those who came before us, who earned the right to never be forgotten.
