West Australian Baseball League Colts Grade trophy 1992-1997

1992
Overview

A silver-plated trophy in the form of a stemmed-cup with handles, mounted on a round, black Bakelite base. The front of the cup is engraved with the name of the baseball league and who would be awarded the trophy. The names of the winning teams from 1992 to 1997 are engraved on the back of the cup. Inside the Bakelite base is the manufacturer's sticker.

Historical information

This cup was awarded to the West Australian Baseball League's Colts Grade Premiers from 1992 to 1997. Due to the extensive damage to the perpetual cup, it was replaced with a similar cup in 1998, which was also engraved with the 1992-1997 winners as well as future winners (1998, 1999).
