John “Jack” Keegan was involved in youth sports for much of his adult life. His involvement in youth sports went back to the early 1950s when he co-managed the 1953 Warren team in the Bristol County Babe Ruth League. In 1954 he again coached the Warren Babe Ruth Team in the Bristol County Babe Ruth League. In the mid-1960s Jack became involved in Warren Little League. In 1966 and 1967 he coached the Little League Senators.

In 1967 Jack coached the Senators to the Warren Little League Championship. In 1968 and 1970, Jack coached the Major League All Star Team.

He also served as the Little League’s Player Agent from 1968 to 1971. In the late 1960s a group of men, including Jack, started what would become, one of Warren’s most successful winter sports programs-The Warren School Indoor Soccer League. Many of Warren’s top future soccer stars cut their soccer teeth in this wonderful learning program for kids.
