I’ve seen Carey show up to games and practices in so much pain, at times he was barely able to speak. But for Carey, his players always come first, and no sacrifice or hardship is too great to bear for his kids. Blessed with a wonderful sense of humour and a bountiful supply of humanity, Carey sometimes wonders if he’s really making a meaningful contribution to the team —during those moments when he ponders the limitations of his illness. But it is clear to everyone who knows him, for those who have had the privilege to play for him and those who have had the pleasure to coach with him, that Carey’s contributions are immeasurable. I have seen the lasting, positive effects even his simplest talks have on his players. And I have seen the looks of love, admiration and respect he garners from all his boys. Carey is the most inspirational, courageous and dedicated person I know. Hopefully, his example has made me a better coach, a better role model and a better person.

Watching Carey coach these boys for 4 years was one of the most remarkable things. On top of teaching the boys how to be incredible players on the baseball field, he also instills in them outstanding morals and values that they can take with them off the field. What is remarkable is the fact that Carey does all of this while battling a very difficult disease. Rain or shine Carey is at every practice, every game, and every meeting. Part of the joy of having a family member play on the NDG Lynx is the fact that you get to join the NDG Lynx family. Although my brother does not play with the NDG Lynx due to his age, my family is still in touch with every player, every family, and every coach, especially Carey. I am honored to know Carey Ashton and will always remember him no matter where life takes me. -- Thank you Carey for everything you have done for these boys, especially Jack.

Carey is an inspiration to everyone at the games; kids, parents, officials, fans and opponents alike. His lesson to the young people he coaches is invaluable and one they will carry with them forever. He teaches them that obstacles can be overcome when you are determined, that love of the game is more important than physical dominance and that when you carry yourself with respect and dignity, you earn the same back a hundred times over. These are values that will not only shape the kids' next season, but have an effect on every endeavour and challenge they meet.

I have no doubt that each player’s life has been changed in the very best way because of Carey. He tought them the true meaning of determination and courage! Carey Ashton has my vote a million times over as coach of a lifetime!
