NBBA Memorial Plaque
The Memorial Plaques are a collection of all those over the last fifty years who have made an impact on the National Beep Baseball Association and beep baseball itself. We honor and cherish everyone’s contributions and remember them for all that they gave everyone. The NBBA will continue to update this page with those who were a part of beep baseball, and historically are part of the NBBA.
Please send information on adding to this list of individuals for the NBBA Memorial Plaque to NBBA Memorial Plaque, plaque@nbba.org.
This First Memorial Plaque was donated by Jaconic Council Telephone Pioneers of America.
