Our Team

Neil Yersak (he/him) has been playing in Philadelphia Adult League Softball (PALS) since its inception in 2012. After playing in sport and social leagues for several years, he was drawn to PALS by its mission to engage the community, and to build relationships and provide service and volunteer opportunities that go beyond the game. Neil is a former team captain of the longest serving PALS team and he participates in many of the local volunteering events sponsored by PALS. In 2019, he traveled to Belize for the PALS inaugural service trip. This engagement led to him being inducted into the PALS Hall of Fame.

Neil has a bachelor’s degree in Architectural & Civil Engineering from Drexel University. He holds a Professional Engineer license in structural engineering and currently works in public and rail transportation. Originally from Central Jersey, he has resided in East Passyunk since 2009 where he lives with his partner, Victoria, and their cat, Chewbacca. He enjoys participating in volunteer events in his neighborhood, including tree plantings and cleanups.
