Baseball New Brunswick named Province of the year for 2011 by Baseball Canada
During this past weekend at the Baseball Canada Convention in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Baseball New Brunswick was named Province of the Year for 2011
"Selection for the award is based on the Provincial President’s Report, which details baseball activity for the individual province. The chosen province is one, which has clearly exemplified a commitment to all areas of player, coaching and umpire development.
New Brunswick led all provinces in increased players registered by a whopping 25%. They also led the Officials development category, finished 2nd in governance and followed that up with a 2nd place overall rating in the Program Area as well. New Brunswick placed one player, Jay Johnson from Sussex Corner, on one of three National Teams and showed their knack for fine hospitality as they hosted the Baseball Canada Cup in Moncton and Senior Men’s National Championship in Miramichi/Chatham during the month of August.
This marks the 3rd time that New Brunswick has won this award. They last won this award in 1991.”
Even though this award was won for the 2011 season we know it took many years to get to this point and The Baseball New Brunswick Organization would greatly like to thank all directors, players, coaches, parents and especially the volunteers of all the member Associations over the years. This award marks the end of another great year, and we are already planning another great season for 2012.
