Dave Padgham Memorial fund on behalf of NWLL

Dave Padgham began his coaching career in 1999 when his son Connor was in Kindergarten and played for the T-ball Braves. His coaching career lasted until 2008 when his son Carter played for his final season.  Through those years he was the head coach for 12 teams and was an assistant coach for 6 teams, equally enjoying Fall and Spring ball. Dave also found time to serve 4 years on the Northwood Little League Board.

Dave loved playing baseball in Laguna Beach as a boy and Laguna Beach High School as a teenager. He believed that a “Winning Season” not only was reflected on the scoreboard but also how many kids decided to come back and play the following season.  He loved coaching baseball and felt team sports taught you life lessons far beyond the baseball field.

Dave passed away suddenly on Friday, December 7th and is survived by his wife, Shelley and his sons Connor and Carter. 

Your support in his memory will help Northwood Little League Youth Baseball continue to provide those opportunities for years to come.
