Champions Beyond the Diamond: Women in the World of Baseball is a special evening dedicated to the incredible women who support, shape, and grow the game behind the scenes. Taking place on May 25 from 7:00–9:00 PM at the Sandman Signature Lethbridge Lodge, this free event invites moms, sisters, aunts, grandmothers, and female fans of all ages to connect, learn, and be inspired. Through conversation, shared experiences, and new opportunities, attendees will discover ways to become more involved in baseball, whether through volunteering, community initiatives, or simply deepening their connection to the game. This welcoming and empowering evening celebrates the vital role women play in baseball and creates a space to grow that impact even further.

Featured Guest Speakers

​The evening will feature a diverse and inspiring group of guest speakers, each bringing a unique perspective on the role of women in baseball, sport, and leadership.

Valerie Wallace will share her journey navigating and succeeding within

the traditionally male-dominated world of baseball, offering insight into breaking barriers and building a path in the game.

Candice Henson brings firsthand experience from her time working with both the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays, providing a behind-the-scenes look at opportunities for women at the highest levels of professional baseball.

Jennifer Schmidt-Rempel, Alderperson for the City of Lethbridge, will speak to the importance of women in leadership roles within the community, sharing her experiences and perspective on creating impact both in sport and beyond.

Kristen Woolfe will share her journey as a first-time baseball mom and how she turned that experience into building a stronger sense of community. What began as supporting her child quickly grew into rallying other moms to get involved, creating connections, and playing an active role in the team environment. Her story highlights the powerful impact parents can have in shaping the game both on and off the field.

Together, these speakers will create an informative and empowering experience, highlighting the many ways women can be leaders, contributors, and champions within the world of baseball.
