Hall of Fame

Inductees into the Hall of Fame are selected by a committee made up of Life Members, Hall of Fame Members, and Members of the Board of Directors of the DeKalb Area USBC. Candidates are presented to the committee by filing a nomination form found on the bulletin boards of local centers or here at dekalbusbc.com.

The DeKalb Area USBC Hall of Fame was established in 1991 for the purpose of perpetuating the names of those individuals who have displayed outstanding ability in the game of bowling and/or have contributed through meritorious service or years involved, for the general welfare and progress of the game in the area served by the Dekalb USBC.
