About Us
The “DC Baseball Builders Club” (a registered Not-For-Profit Society) was founded in 2007 by a group of individuals that wanted to promote, stabilize and aid in the growth of the local Douglas College Baseball program.
Due to the incredible support given by the college in recent years – both financially and administratively – it was felt that, while continuing to assist in the DC program, the opportunity to move our energies towards a broader scope of the “Diamond Sport” community had presented itself. Thus the moniker “The Dugout Club”. The dugout being a place where at times you find support and shelter, camaraderie, and yes, even the odd time, knowledge and wisdom.
While the short term goals are humble to say the least – just an interesting blog site to promote the “fun” aspects of the game being played from the grassroots level up to collegiate ball – our hope is to continue to grow support for such partners as KidSports, DC Baseball, interested teams and associations regardless of gender, and most importantly, those out there that are “in need” in trying to participate in a great game!! Be that through possible scholarship opportunities or simply helping out with registrations at a beginner’s level.
Those goals won’t be attained without the help of our local business partners found elsewhere on this site, so please support them when it makes sense to do so on our behalf. It’s through the help, generosity, and leadership of those interested in this cause, that we can make a difference.
Hopefully you’ll follow along a successful path with us, and if not, we’ve always said “we’d rather fail at something we love, than succeed at something we don’t.”
