City seeks nominations for Sports Hall of Fame

The Biloxi Parks and Recreation Department is now accepting applications for the 2015 class of the Biloxi Sports Hall of Fame, which will be inducted in August.

The department is seeking nominees whose playing career is completed but may still be coaching or volunteering in Biloxi. The inductees will be selected on athletic achievements, advancement in sports and community service.  Applications may be acquired weekdays from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Parks and Recreation office, located at 377 Hiller Drive, or online at https://biloxi.ms.us/residents/parks-recreation/sports/hall-of-fame/.  Application deadline is June 30, 2015.

The Biloxi Sports Hall of Fame was created to identify and honor individuals who have significantly contributed to the betterment of athletics in the City of Biloxi, either through exemplary performance as a player or coach, or in any supporting role of superior accomplishment.  Inductees are chosen each year and are honored during an annual banquet.
