Thorhild Minor Ball sports a brand-new look

By Brandie Majeau

Thorhild Minor Ball, a local youth baseball and softball league, is all set to kick off

their second year and an exhilarating new season. The league, which is back in action

after a hiatus of over two decades, is buzzing with excitement and anticipation. To mark

this momentous occasion, Kerrie Stanko, President of Thorhild Minor Ball, made a

thrilling announcement: they will be retiring their old, historic jerseys and unveiling a

brand-new look. While the old jerseys hold a special place in the heart of Thorhild Minor

Ball, the prospect of a fresh start and a new beginning is simply irresistible. The

excitement is palpable, and everyone is eagerly looking forward to the new season.

Thorhild Minor Ball deeply appreciates the invaluable support from their

sponsors DDC Sand & Gravel, Richardson Pioneer of Waskatenau, and Lube City from

Morinville. Their generous contributions have not only made the league’s operations

possible but have also created a safe and enjoyable environment for our young athletes

to hone their skills and forge lifelong friendships.

Thorhild Minor Ball is expected to have high numbers this year and will offer

various programs, including t-ball, 7U mixed, 9U mixed, and U11 & U15 softball for the

season. Fans are welcome to come and cheer on the players, who give their all on the

field, and join in the excitement and energy as games unfold and the season

progresses. 

Anyone wishing to support Thorhild Minor Ball further can head to Thorhild Co-op

on May 17th for their fundraiser BBQ. The proceeds will go towards supporting the

league and providing the young athletes with the equipment and resources they need to

succeed. The burgers and hotdogs will be delicious, and it is an excellent opportunity to

show your support for a great cause.

The players could not be more excited that they are a new generation and a new beginning for Thorhild Minor Ball.
