In agreeing to take on the position of Safety Officer Steve has agreed to take on one of NDG Minor Baseballs most important and delicate tasks. As Safety Officer Steve is responsible for background checks on all of NDG Minor Baseball's volunteers. Every year, as per Little League guidelines, leagues appoint a Safety Officer who is responsible for acquiring personal information from all NDG Baseball volunteers and running that information through a private Police check. The purpose of the Police check is to verify that all our volunteers pose no threat to the children of NDG Minor Baseball. As per policy, all results from Police checks are kept private between the Safety Officer, the President of the League, Terry Doucet, and Lionel Geller.

Equipment Manager

Lionel has been a volunteer of NDG MInor Baseball for over twenty years. He has been President many times. He wears many hats within the league as he is by far the most experienced and respected of all the NDG Baseball volunteers. Lionel works for NDG Baseball year-round performing those small tasks that are needed to be performed for the organisation to run as smooth as it does. 

While Lionel is involved with most divisions, he is most notably known as the perennial director of our Novice Division, which is the level with our youngest players. As a grandfather with a Santa-Claus-like cheerful and welcoming demeanour, Lionel is a natural with the kids. Lionel is also known for reminding our coaches of the Little League philosophy by stating, "We don't do this for the recognition, we do it  for the kids. The opinion of most at NDG Minor Baseball is that Lionel can be considered the organisations most valued volunteer. 

Uniform Manager

Brenda has been very active in NDG MInor Baseball over the past two years acting as a House League coach for he sons team. As uniform manager Brenda will be in charge of the distribution of team uniforms for both House League and competitive teams throughout the year.

Director of Coaching

Terry has been a volunteer for the league going on twenty years. He is the pitching coach for the National Championship team the McGill Redbirds and is responsible for our ever popular pitching clinic held Tuesday nights during the winter. Terry has been on the NDG Baseball Executive for at least ten years and along with Lionel Geller is seen as one of the most valued NDG Baseball volunteers.

As the Director of Coaching, Terry will oversee and give his opinion concerning the coaching assignments for our competitive and House League teams. As our head instructor, Terry will also be responsible for coaching clinics throughout the year.
