West Australian Baseball League Colts Grade Premiers trophy 1992–1999
1998A silver-plated perpetual trophy in the form of a stemmed cup with handles, mounted on a red wooden 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 1999 are engraved on a silver plaque mounted on the front of the wooden base. The manufacturer's sticker is attached underneath the wooden base.
Due to the extensive damage to the original perpetual cup that was awarded to the West Australian Baseball League (WABL) Colts Grade Premiers between 1992 and 1997, this replacement trophy was awarded to the winning teams in 1998 and 1999. However, the plaque on this trophy includes the 1992-1997 winners.
After 1999, when the WABL and the Baseball Development Foundation Inc. amalgamated, this trophy would have been replaced with another trophy bearing the league's new name — Baseball WA.
