Our carefully-curated DSMHOF celebrates
a small state that is big in sports, where
competition is founded on respect. The Hall
of Fame has played an important role in this
State’s historical and cultural life for nearly
50 years. The Museum, located at Frawley
Stadium, is calling you for a visit. We invite
you to become a member of the Hall, to
enjoy our newsletter, our panels, and other
ways in which we preserve, explore and
share Delaware’s sports history. We work to
recognize, record and give new life to sports in the First State.
