Baseball is alive and well in Upper Island Cove. The
Upper Island Cove Bulldogs wrapped up a great season
earlier this fall at the Newfoundland Amateur Baseball
Association meetings in Gander.
At the awards reception, Tiffany Janes of Bryant’s
Cove was awarded the Stephanie Bavis Memorial Award for
provincial Female Player of the Year for 2008.
Bulldogs President, Scott Adams, received the Les
Noseworthy Memorial Award for outstanding contribution
to the growth and development of baseball in
Newfoundland and Labrador. Scott Mercer, the
Vice-President of the Bulldogs, was re-elected to the
NABA Executive as Eastern Director, while Scott Adams
was elected as the NABA Treasurer.
In 2009, several championships will be hosted at
Upper Island Cove. In addition, the Bantam Girls Team
will travel to the 2009 National Bantam Baseball
Championships later on.
Mr. Speaker, congratulations are in order to all
three individuals and I ask all hon. members to join me
in wishing them every success in 2009.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. |
