With more than 50 years of history, the Aardvarks have an annual tradition that honors the players who have elevated our team and our sport. Beginning in 2016, The Hall of Fame Committee nominates and votes players into the Aardvark Hall of Fame. Recipients are recognized at the annual President’s Dinner and memorialized by having a brick engraved with their name laid in the Walk of Fame at Aardvark Park. The formal induction ceremony occurs at the annual Presidents Dinner and the brick laying ceremony occurs at the annual Green/Gold Match, which occurs at the end of each spring season.
