Saturday is a day of celebration and a day under the national spotlight for Challenger Baseball, the Field of Ability, the City of Belleville, and the Quinte region.
From 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., TSN will broadcast a two hour Sportscentre, live from West Zwick’s Park. It previously was only scheduled for one hour (6:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.).
Anchors Jennifer Hedger and Darryn Dutchyshen will anchor the nationally televised program.
The show is coming as part of Challenger Baseball’s win of the Kraft Heinz Project Play contest.
$250,000 was awarded for the creation of a fully accessible baseball field at the Parkdale ball diamonds.
To go along with the event at West Zwick’s is face painting, music, live entertainment, and a viewing party of the Canada – New Zealand Women’s World Cup Soccer game.
The city is offering free transit to and from the event. Pick up is by the old Sears store in the parking lot of the Quinte Mall, with a stop at the downtown terminal, and then to Zwick’s and back the same route, running every half hour from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
