Newport RI – The second coach rounding out our Coaches Spotlights is none other than the man who invented hitting himself – Ted Regan! Ted Regan enters his fifth year as the Gulls hitting coach in 2025.

Regan has a wealth of experience under his belt, having served as an assistant coach for Eckerd College for the last 17 years. Regan has been an assistant coach and manager for numerous summer collegiate teams including the Bourne Braves and the Wareham Gatemen of the Cape Cod Baseball League. Prior to joining the Gulls coaching staff in 2021, Regan spent time with the former New Bedford Bay Sox of the NECBL.

While coaching for Bishop Connolly High School in Fall River, MA, Regan was given the honor of "Coaches Who Make a Difference" by the Fall River Herald News He served as the Director for River City Baseball for 15 years and coached the 1996 USA and Japan Friendship Series in Tokyo.

With nearly 30 years of coaching experience, Regan looks to add another title to his long list of accolades as the Gulls look to become the first team to three-peat as NECBL Champions for the first time since 97’-99’ when the Middletown Giants last accomplished the feat.
