THE BATTLEFORDS - A Battlefords Minor Baseball executive has been recognized and awarded "Baseball Builder of the Year" by Sask Baseball.
Dean Dimmick was given the honour in recognition of his coaching efforts. Along with fellow coaches Gary Nolan and Jonathan Puetz, Dimmick coached the North Battleford Beavers to a AA U18 Provincial title this fall. This is the first provincial title captured by a Battlefords team since reorganization in 2015.
“There are a number of awards that Sask Baseball hands out each year, but to be named to the builder category is a real stamp of approval for a person’s efforts in a given sport,” commented executive member Eric Cawood.
“Since 2015, the local baseball association has earned five provincial awards which speak very highly of our baseball group,” said executive secretary, Sherrilyn Phelps.
BMBI is expecting a record number of players this spring, with registration to open shortly.
