Biography
Jay Tourangeau was inducted as the 16th member into the SPN Hall of Fame on Saturday, Nov 14th at the Slo-Pitch National Annual General Meeting in the “Builder" category, by former British Columbia Regional Director, Paul Langford.
Jay was inducted into the Builder’s category, for his years of dedicated volunteer service. Since SPN’s inception in 1989, Jay has held the roles of Provincial Umpire-In-Chief, National Deputy Umpire-In-Chief, Provincial Coordinator and Regional Director. He now serves as the Chairman on the National Board of Governors.
Jay is also a very skilled slo-pitch player, and there was much debate on whether he should have been nominated and inducted into the player category. He has competed at the highest level of play on various mens teams from British Columbia and participated at the local, Provincial and National Championship levels.
Jay’s years of dedication to Slo-Pitch National as a volunteer, umpire and player have been invaluable to the sport of slo-pitch, and Slo-Pitch National would like to congratulate Jay on his induction into the Hall of Fame.
