Jan Borland Memorial Award

She always recruited for the good of the Association. "The younger the better, if they can walk, they can play ball". She also wanted more girls involved in baseball and was always trying to think of new ways of getting them out to play and keep them coming back. Her untimely death left a void at B.O.M.B.A. that will be hard to fill.
