2025 Hap Minor, Ponytail Teams End Season With Civitan Jamboree

The 2005 Hap Minor Baseball and Ponytail Softball Civitan Jamboree brought together hundreds of youth on Saturday at George Izay Park, marking the end of the regular season.
A number of individuals were recognized for their outstanding achievements on and off the field that helped make the past season a successful one.
The 54th Jackie Arrington Award was given to Sebastian Recinos of the Jammers. The award has been given out since 1971 to honor Arrington, who died of a terminal illness. The recipient is given to a young man who played in the 5/6 Little Majors Division and, like Arrington, showed great spirit for the game of baseball.

The recipient of the Christopher Wilke Memorial Award was given to Remy Gamache of the KTB Seals. This award is given to keep alive the memory of Wilke, whose life was cut short by a terminal illness.

Juliette Keefer of the Wolverines was the winner of the Linda Murphy Pioneer Award. Murphy is a lifelong Burbank resident who was a pioneer in advancing equality in female sport and was part of the U.S. 1964 Olympic women’s volleyball team.

Ashlyn Castle of Diamonds was the winner of the Barbara Rownd Memorial Award. Rownd was the founder of Ponytail Softball in 1957. Her program grew nationally and was used as a model for girls’ fast-pitch softball throughout the country.

Below are the winners of the contests at the Jamboree.
