The A’s have used the facility to its advantage over the years, posting the second best home record (492-318, .607) in the Major Leagues over the last 10 seasons. In 2003, the A’s set an Oakland record for home wins as they finished with a 57-24 (.704) record in the Coliseum, marking the most home wins in franchise history since 1931 RECORDS when the Philadelphia Athletics went 60-15 at home. In addition, two of the A’s World Championships have been clinched on the Coliseum’s turf. The Coliseum’s exceptional sight lines, fine weather and sizable staging areas have all contributed to its popularity among performers, promoters and the Bay Area public. The facility is conveniently located adjacent to I-880 with two exits (Hegenberger Road/66th Avenue) leading directly to the complex. Along with the Oracle Arena, which is located adjacently, it is the only major entertainment facility with a dedicated stop on the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) system. The Oakland International Airport is less than a two-mile drive from the Coliseum with shuttle service to several local hotels and restaurants. In October of 1995, the Coliseum HISTORY began a one-year, $120 renovation proj- ect that added 22,000 new seats, 90 luxury suites, two private clubs and two OAKLAND-ALAMEDA COUNTY COLISEUM state-of-the-art scoreboards.

  • 2019 Banquet Program
    Welcome to We at the Georgetown Centre, are very happy to be the site of the 2019 Mid Mon Valley All Sports Hall Fame banquet. Being a 1963 graduate of Thomas Jefferson High School, I have had many memo- ries of valley sports in my high school and college memories. We, at the Georgetown Centre, family owned and operated since 1990, have become the premier banquet facility in this area. We operated the Yorkshire Inn Restaurant for 23 years beginning in 1970. Through the years we have established many lasting relationships whether it be by wedding, sports banquets, showers or graduations. The valley has been an important source of business for the Yorkshire Inn and the Georgetown Centre for many years. We hope that this inaugural banquet of the Mid Mon Valley sports affair becomes a new reoccurring relationship with the Georgetown Centre. We are proud to have the yearly affair here with us. Thank you for sharing the experience with us at the Georgetown Centre. Thank you, Leslie George, Jr. Owner Hall of Fame Watch 2019 Welcome to the 26th annual Mid Mon Valley All Sports Hall of Fame Banquet. This is our first experience at The Georgetown Centre and we appreciate the graciousness of host Les George. Our student honorees, outstanding senior scholar-athletes chosen by their respective Mon Valley high schools, are to be commended on a job well done! It is our privilege to honor you in tonight’s ceremony alongside the athletes who came before you. Most importantly, you represent the future for our communities, commonwealth and nation.
