This photo above features the 1934 Yarmouth Gateways baseball team, which was an amateur team based in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada. The team had a successful season, winning the Nova Scotia Amateur Baseball Championship for the third time in 1934. They were known for their "slick play and the ability to make a few hits go a long way". That same year, the neighboring team from Saint John, New Brunswick, the Kiwanis, beat the Yarmouth Gateways for their fourth Maritime Championship.
I finally figured out some of the members of the 1934 team - Pete White, Nelson Deveau, Doug Horton, Ernie Grimshaw, Halley Horton. Boyd "Copie" LeBlanc, Nate Bain, "Red" Goudey, Ken Veniot, Purney Fuller and "Lightning" Amiro.
Here is the complete roster of the 1934 Yarmouth Gateways baseball team - TOMORROW the Yarmouth Gateways, grouped here, will be fighting with backs to the wall at home against the onrushing St. Stephen-Milltown Kiwanis as the Maritime senior baseball final series is resumed. Kiwanis lead, two wins to none. The game, third of the series, starts Wednesday at 2.30 Atlantic Standard Time. The players above: Back row, left to right, D. Nickerson; N.

The Yarmouth Gateways were a dominant force in Nova Scotia and Maritime amateur baseball throughout the 1930s. The team was a source of great local pride and attracted large crowds to their games at the William Street ballpark.
The Yarmouth Gateways were a prominent baseball team in Nova Scotia, known for their success in the 1920s and 1930s. They won the provincial championship five times and the Maritime championship twice during their nine-season run from 1929 to 1937. Notable players from this era include Copie LeBlanc, who was part of the team that faced the Boston Braves in an exhibition game in 1935.
Key Achievements and Information: Provincial and Maritime Championships: The Gateways were Nova Scotia provincial champions five times between 1929 and 1937. They also won the Maritime Championship twice, including in 1935 when they defeated the St. Stephen Milltown Kiwanis.
Playing Style: The team was known for their effective "slick play" and ability to "make a few hits go a long way," utilizing strategies like squeeze bunts and base stealing.
Notable Opponents: They competed against strong teams like the St. Stephen Kiwanis. In 1935, they played an exhibition game against the Boston Braves, marking the first time a major league team played in Nova Scotia. The Gateways also played touring Black baseball teams such as the Boston Royal Giants and Philadelphia Giants, and Yarmouth's town league sometimes featured both Black and white players on the same team.
The Gateways capped the 1935 season with an exhibition game, which saw the Boston Braves visit Yarmouth for the first-ever appearance of a major league team on a Nova Scotia diamond. The Braves of the National League knocked 21 hits around the William Street ball field and humbled the Gateways 20-2. Still, the Braves deemed the Gateways a worthy opponent to make the trip to Yarmouth. LINK to a photo of the program - www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10159491095566856&set=pc...
Team Members: Key members of the 1935 team included players like Edgar Amirault, Nate Bain, Prescott "Bis" Boyd, and others. Pitcher Nate Bain's signed ball from the Boston Braves exhibition game is reportedly in the Nova Scotia Sport Hall of Fame.
The Yarmouth Gateways senior teams from 1929-1937 were inducted into the Yarmouth area's sports Hall of Fame in 1998.
Unfortunately, a definitive, confirmed roster specifically for the 1934 Yarmouth Gateways team is not available in the search results.
Information is available for the 1935 team, which likely included many of the same players as the 1934 team. The 1935 team members included:
Edgar Amirault
Nate Bain
Prescott "Bis" Boyd
Benedict D'Eon
Russell Doucette
Ernie Grimshaw (captain)
Berwyn Goudey
Douglas Horton
Halley Horton
Copie LeBlanc (left handed pitcher)
Lawrence Muise
Cliffie Surette
Kenneth Veniot
Murray Veno
Peter White
Other players from that era who played for the Gateways included Frank Cook, Henry Lewis, Chas. McDevitt, Bob Forward, Alan Patterson, Raymond Hopkins, Bill Saulnier, Jim Saunders, Alex White, Alex McLaughlin, Bob Clements, "Twist" DeWolfe, Vic Burton, and Win LeCain.
The William Street ballpark was the long-time and beloved home field for the famed Yarmouth Gateways baseball team in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. LINK to a photo of the ballpark - www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=601829890741234&set=pcb.1...
History and Features: Community Hub: The ballpark was a central gathering spot for the community, drawing large crowds for games during the 1930s to 1950s when the Gateways were a prominent amateur team.
Notable Events: It gained historical significance when it hosted an exhibition game between the Gateways and the Boston Braves in 1935, which was the first time a major league baseball team ever played in Nova Scotia.
Location: The park was situated on William Street, in an area of town surrounded by historic homes and churches.
Current Status: The site of the original ballpark is now known as Gateway Park. It is maintained by Yarmouth Recreation and is still used for senior/oldtimers baseball, although the primary field for the current Yarmouth Gateways senior team is now Veterans Field at Broadbrook Park.
