Pat Doyle
“Baseball Expansion Around the World”
Pat Doyle, from Major League Baseball’s Envoy Program which started in 1992. Prior to joining the MLB he was a professor and coach at Delta College.
.
The primary goal of the Envoy Program is to grow the sport of baseball around the world in countries where baseball does not have a large presence like Africa, the Middle East and Europe.
Many of the various training academies are staffed by former major league players and coaches. Through the Envoy program they will interview, hire and teach new coaches in many of these countries.
Pat Doyle was introduced by Joe Serra.

If you wish to help in one or more of these areas please contact Susan Drake at secretary@stocktonrotary.org.

We are asking past presidents and all our members to put on their thinking caps, search your offices and homes for historical tidbits. Please contact Frank Whitney at fwhitney@midcalbbb.org to help him in this task.
