Trash Pandas to host “Youth Sports Night” this Saturday
MADISON – The Rocket City Trash Pandas are hosting its tenth home stand of the 2025 season as they face the Birmingham Barons through Sunday, Aug. 3. The week of Minor League Baseball will include numerous promotions with Saturday, Aug. 2 the official Youth Sports Night.
Local youth sports teams of any sport are encouraged to attend for a night of baseball and fun. Group tickets are available for each youth team with $2 of ballpark credit with each ticket. Details on the special night or questions can be found through Tonia Wigginton, manager of Corporate Sales for the Trash Pandas. She can be contacted at 256-325-3871 or by e-mail at twigginton@trashpandasbaseball. com. The special evening is certainly more than baseball with the Trash Pandas facing the Barons, as the 6:35 p.m. start time will feature those youth teams who purchase 20 tickets receiving the team/ league announcement by the stadium announcer and a dream team experience provided by the Trash Pandas. Teams which purchase at least 50 tickets receive in addition the chance to participate in the ceremonial first pitch. Those squads with as many as 250 tickets sold can also have a special Trash Pandas Mascot appearance just for that team.
Tickets for the Youth Sports Night start at $17.44. It should be a night the attending youth will never forget and be a great way to sort of end the summer before heading back to school.
Saturday’s official promotion for the evening is Dinosaur Weekend featuring a Jurassic-sized adventure. The prehistoric fun includes life-sized animatronic and static dinos, dino-themed activities and interactive photo ops that will transport each person back in time. Special giveaways will also be included. The evening will be topped off by some dinosaur guests and a hatching baby Dino Egg.
