Treasurer - Julie Pugsley
Julie joined the board in 2025 after having volunteered as an assistant coach for her daughter Brynn’s team in the summer of 2024. Julie played ball when she was younger and was really excited when her daughter finally expressed interest in joining the league as softball is one of the only sports Julie really enjoys watching. When the board was searching for a treasurer, Julie decided to offer to help out as she has many years of experience doing financial management for her small business as well as various other non-profits and charities she’s worked with in the past. Julie is married to her husband Matt and has three wonderful kids – Kai, Brynn and Addie.
Dynamite Director - Meryl Coes

Meryl is an Administrative Assistant with the Town of Quispamsis. Meryl has been a member with KV Girls Softball since 2017 when her oldest daughter started playing.
Meryl is very happy and excited to be involved with KVGSA on the executive board.
Technical Director - Greg Parker
Greg grew up in Quispamsis where he played travel ball for many years. His love of ball expanded into softball as his daughter, Kate, became more involved. Greg started volunteering with KVGSA in 2014 in the Learn to Play program. He then transitioned to coaching in the Dynamite program for several years. Greg was a pitcher so taking an interest in pitching seemed like a natural fit which led him to become KVGSA’s pitching coach. Along with his daughter, Greg conducts pitching clinics both within KVGSA and around the province. His knowledge and creativity made him the perfect candidate for Technical Director. Greg joined the Board of Directors in 2022.
Secretary - Amanda Doherty
Amanda joined the board in 2023 after having been an on field volunteer for her daughter Lauren's team.
Amanda's love for softball started many years ago when she started to play fastpitch at a young age which continued into her adult years when she played in a ladies fastpitch league. She continues to play to this day on a Co-Ed slo pitch team.
In her younger years, having had to bounce all over Saint John and KV to find a softball team to play on, she is so happy to be a part of this amazing program! KVGSA makes it possible for young girls to be a part of a team and fall in love with the sport by inspiring and developing each and every girl.
On the field, Amanda has been a team manager, and in 2025, Amanda will be working as an assistant coach to the U11 Dynamite team!
