Toronto Playgrounds House League Baseball is proud to announce the addition of three new members to our distinguished and hard working volunteer baseball committee.
Our new committee members are:
- JENNY FOSTER: Studious professor by day and assiduous baseball fan by night, Jenny has been one of the most dedicated coaches in our TP House League Baseball program for many years.

- TRACY FRANKLIN: Passionate midwife 24/7 and spirited baseball aficionado, Tracy has been one of our hardest working TP House League Baseball coaches both on and off the field for the past number of seasons. As a coach, Tracy won the TP House League Baseball Peewee Division championship with the Expos in 2015 and the 2016 TP House League Baseball Bantam Division Championship with the Rangers.
- REAGAN MAUDE: As a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious baseball fan, mom and volunteer both on and off the diamond, Reagan spearheaded the idea for the creation of our annual ‘TP House League Baseball Derby for Distance’ fundraising event. Her unbridled zeal for the game was rewarded when she was named a co-winner of the 2013 TP House League Baseball Volunteer of the Year Award.

As a committee, we are always striving to improve the baseball experience on the diamond and work with the community that surrounds us.
