1st Source Bank donates $15,000 to provide a new scoreboard included in the More Than a Game Project. This contribution is one feature in the highly-anticipated, large renovation of World Baseball Academy’s outdoor ball fields. The More Than a Game Project will enhance and strengthen the social, economic, and cultural fabric of the community through kids and their families. Upon completion, project highlights include three new youth baseball fields with artificial surface infields, and natural grass outfields with an irrigation system. Two fields will be sized for young players through high school, and one for up to collegiate level players.

Caleb Kimmel, CEO, World Baseball Academy says, “Our organization is grateful for the generous support of 1st Source Bank. Their donation will fund a new scoreboard to be installed on one of the ASH Centre renovated artificial turf fields. Thousands of young people and their experience on these fields will now be enhanced because of the 1st Source Bank’s kind generosity!"
