On the eve of the USA Softball Season ISC’s, Beyond The Dugout Episode 17 features veteran broadcasters Blair Setford and Kyle Smith & a preview of the 2021 ISC World Tournament.
Blair & Kyle have been a big part of the ISC as broadcasts over the years. But they do so so much more for the game. Both are involved at a local level in various roles as administrators, umpiring, coaching, managing, to international recondition with Ballpark Broadcasting and important roles within the ISC as Blair’s VP Operations & Communications & Kyles Canada East Commissioner.
Tonight you will learn from their beginnings and passion for the game. Their start in broadcasting and all of the inside info on this year’s 2021 ISC World Tournament @ Sheridan Meadows Sports Complex, Eldridge, Iowa USA from 14-21 August.
Kyle Smith, 32 years old and a graduate of the Radio Broadcasting program at Mohawk College in Hamilton, Ontario Canada, is in his 10th season with Ballpark Radio. A student of the game of fastball, Kyle can easily be found in any ballpark in Southwestern Ontario, whether it be while he is umpiring or just watching Kyle spends more time in the park then he does at home.
Kyle’s interests include Fastball, Hockey and anything outside. While watching sporting events on television he listens to the various play-by-play personalities to hone his craft after them. Kyle and his wife Candice currently reside in the metropolis with one flashing light, Hickson Ontario.
Blair Setford began playing fastball at the age of 7 in Jordan, Ontario and, ever since then, the game has been a big part of his life. Since joining what is now the Golden Horseshoe Fastball League in 1994, he’s been a team rep, player/manager and league executive member.
Blair first partnered on air with Jim Flanagan in 2004 and has helped to grow the audience for the men’s game along with the rest of the Ballpark Broadcasting crew. In addition to his administration duties in the game, Blair is on the coaching staff of one of the top-ranked club teams in men’s open level fastball.
Audience members enjoy Blair’s extensive knowledge of the players and the game, along with polished performances behind the mic. Blair and his wife Monique and their two children, Benjamin and Natasha, live in Mississauga, Ontario.
So sit back and enjoy Beyond The Dugout with hosts Jason Gerbes aka Chopper & Damian Michael Patrick Collins bringing weekly guests from the best that Fastpitch Softball has ever seen.
