“There are so many wonderful
opportunities for young women to get
U.S. college scholarships by becoming
fastball pitchers that when we hold
these clinics, we’re filled with girls,” he
said. “When it comes to men, we’ve
seen the wonderful work that David
(Muswaggon) has done in Cross Lake
and there are a few good pitchers like
Brady Woods, but Brady is in his late 20s
or early 30s now and there is nobody
coming up behind him.
“I would say that in 95 per cent of my
clinics, I’m working with females.”
He’s also getting an opportunity to
travel the world.
“I just came back from the Caribbean
where I was working with the
Caribbean Softball Association,” he
said. “We went to the Bahamas and
worked with a lot of male pitchers
there. It was quite rewarding and
they’ve asked us to go back.”
Greg Bouchard was one of the finest
athletes ever produced in Manitoba.
What’s more important, however, is
that he’s still giving back to the game he
loves. l
