The Ballpark with a Big Heart!

annual Levine Children’s jersey design contest winner at Atrium Health Ballpark

Cannon Ballers Games Are About Baseball and a Whole Lot More!

Last week, Nash Wilbanks, a 9-year-old cancer patient from Atrium Health Levine Children’s Hospital was able to see the Cannon Ballers players as well as kids attending the game wearing the jersey he designed! This past winter, Nash participated in the Cannon Ballers’ annual Levine Children’s jersey design contest as a form of art therapy while receiving his chemotherapy treatment. Though Nash’s journey through cancer treatment has been challenging, his creativity and determination have shone through in his bright spirit and now in his special jersey design.

Next weekend the Cannon Ballers have two more events that feature worthy causes. You can make a difference while cheering on the Cannon Ballers AND enjoying post-game fireworks both nights!
