Hall of Fame
The Sheboygan Area Bowling Association Hall of Fame was formed in 1990 to recognize individuals who were dedicated and accomplished bowlers in our association. Being elected into a Hall of Fame is the highest recognition that can be given to any person. New members are inducted at an annual banquet which all bowlers are welcome to attend.
Congratulations to the 2024
Hall of Fame inductees!
