Story

The Neepawa Cubs of 1955-1960 were coached by Merv Buchanan and Doug Birch. They started out as juveniles in the early 1950s before winning the Neepawa and District League Championships in 1955, 1956, 1959, and 1960. The Cubs won six more crowns in the next decade, and were a dominate team in this golden era of Manitoba baseball. Their league consisted of Eden, Wellwood, Springhill, Plumas, and the Neepawa Farmers.
