In Memory of David Zeman


Beloved Coach, Commissioner & Board Member has passed

Coach Zeman was an integral part of PAL’s growth and success. He was always available to help any coach, player, parent or board member. He coached both of his sons and will forever be a special part of the lives he touched through his coaching. Dave was a fantastic person who spent countless hours at Peninsula Park making sure it was in the best possible condition. Dave’s passing is a great loss to the Annapolis community. Our thoughts and prayers go to the entire Zeman family.

If you wish to make a donation to PAL in his name, please click the link below.
