Hall of Fame
The Bull League Hall of Fame is a commemorative honor awarded to select retired players who have been inducted through a vote. The former players who are admitted are generally recognized with admission to the hall for distinguishing themselves in the sport athletically.
Balloting
Players are eligible for induction should they receive at least 75% of votes on a Hall of Fame ballot. A player may be entered onto the ballot after one year of retirement, and may be listed on a ballot for up to five years.
A player who does not achieve at least 5% of votes on any ballot is dropped and not considered further.
