Welcome to
Drayton Valley District Minor Baseball Club

Let's Play Ball !!
The 2008 season is under way. We had an excellent day for our assessment camp. Lots of kids came out to show off their skills and improve themselves. Teams have been divided up and practices our under way.
The Drayton Valley Midget Team has joined the Edmonton Regional Rural Baseball League and opens it's season with it's first game Saturday May 3rd.
The T-ball program has had a excellent response this year and our first week of games has gone well. The director & coaches have worked hard to make the program fun and enjoyable for the kids. Our second game already showed a fantastic improvement. The T-ball kids play every Tues and Thurs at 6pm. If anyone would like to come out and support our future ball players they would love it.
This goes for any other minor ball team. Come show your support and cheer on Drayton Valley Minor Ball.

Local Coach Receives Award
CONGRATULATIONS DON BAILEY!
Drayton Valley District Minor Baseball Club is pleased to announce Don Bailey, 2007 Midget coach and director, received the prestigious Bill Chmiliar Award of Merit from the Edmonton International Baseball Foundation during Baseball Canada/Baseball Alberta annual Awards Night in Edmonton on November 10, 2007. This award is presented to a person whose conduct, education and activities have made a significantly lasting contribution to the development and betterment of amateur baseball in the province. It is the highest honour one can receive in amateur baseball in Alberta.
Don Bailey has been coaching baseball in the local area for almost 20 years. He has also served on the Drayton Valley Minor Baseball executive in one capacity or another during this time. Parents of his 2002 Peewee team submitted Don’s nomination for the award five years ago. At the time Bailey won the 3M Award due to his special contribution to the development of athletes and sport in the community. His candidacy for the Bill Chmiliar Award remained on the shortlist in the following years. Don’s name can be found on the trophy at the Telus Field showcase in Edmonton.
Thank-you Don, for making baseball fun!
