The Vicksburg Warren School District is now accepting nominations for its Athletic Hall of Fame Class of 2025.

The Hall of Fame recognizes athletes, coaches and administrators who have made substantial contributions to the VWSD athletic department. The public is invited to nominate candidates, who will then be selected by a 12-member committee.

The deadline to submit applications is July 7. Application forms can be scanned and emailed to athletic department secretary Priscilla Berry at pberry@vwsd.org; dropped off at the VWSD Athletics Office at 1500 Mission 66; or mailed to the address listed on the nomination form.

Along with the form, applications should include some information about the nominee and their accomplishments.

Nomination forms are available from the Athletics Office.

The Class of 2025 will be announced later this summer. They will be inducted at a banquet on Sept. 18, and recognized at the Vicksburg vs. Warren Central football game on Sept. 19.

To be eligible for induction, candidates must meet the following criteria:

• Athletes must have attended and participated in a sport for at least two years at Vicksburg High School or Warren Central beginning in 1970, and must have been part of a class that has graduated at least 15 years prior to nomination.

Some athletes who attended other public schools in the city and county prior to 1970 will also be considered.

• Coaches must have coached for at least five years at a VWSD school and 10 years in their sport, and must be out of coaching for at least five years.

• Administrators must have made significant contributions to VWSD athletics and be at least five years removed from their last job.

The VWSD Athletic Hall of Fame was started in 2016, and 61 athletes and coaches have been selected since then.
