Butte Sports Hall of Fame Nominations Close at the End of 2025

Do you know a great Butte athlete from the past who is worthy of inclusion in the Butte Sports Hall of Fame?  Time is running out for nomination into the Class of 2026.  In order to be considered for inclusion, athletes must be nominated and only nominated athletes will be considered.  Nomination for the Butte Sports Hall of Fame Class of 2026 ends on Wednesday, December 31st.

Those who have been nominated in the last several selection processes do not need to be re-nominated although re-nominations can be made for the purpose of providing more information on the nominee.

In order to be considered, candidates must be 15 years or more removed from high school and have finished competing at their highest level.  In addition to athletes, coaches, old timers (50 years and older) and contributors are also eligible for nomination.

There will be a public forum at 6 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 26th at the McQueen Club which will allow people to make a presentation on behalf of nominees in front of the selection committee. All presentations will be strictly limited to 3 minutes. Letters of recommendation and/or short videos of support can be submitted to the Hall of Fame selection committee as well.  The 2026 inductees will be named in February, and the Green Jacket and Induction ceremonies will be held July 24 and 25 at the Butte Civic Center.

If you would like to submit a nomination, email as much information as possible to Bill Foley at foles74@gmail.com.  For more information or details please call or text Foley at (406) 491-3022.
