Biography
Kathleen O’Brien was inducted into the Builder Category of the Slo-Pitch National Hall of Fame in October of 2019. Her involvement in the game began in 1988 in Mount Pearl, Newfoundland when she had recently moved from Labrador City and joined the Mount Pearl Ladies League, an affiliate league of Slo-Pitch National. Her interest turned into ambition as she took on leadership roles for the Newfoundland program convening for various Regional tournaments and the Women’s Provincials for nearly 30 years.
In 2005 Kathleen was appointed the position of Women’s Director for SPN Newfoundland and shortly after in 2009 became the Provincial Coordinator.
She carried herself in these roles with professionalism, confidence, and an unparalleled passion. Slo-Pitch National is honored to welcome her into the Hall of Fame. Congratulations on your induction, Kathleen.
