The Wounded Warrior Amputee Softball Team (WWAST) will conduct a tour of Virginia in April playing multiple cities, with the grand finale event happening in Bedford with an exciting double-header vs. Bedford County First Responders. The opening ceremony will begin at 12 p.m. on Saturday, April 28 with the first game starting at 1 p.m.

The WWAST consists of men and women, both veterans and active duty soldiers, from all service branches, who have sustained injuries resulting in amputation. Through extensive rehabilitation, they have become competitive athletes, playing against teams across the country in competitive, celebrity, and exhibition games. Come out and help honor our heroes and cheer them on as they travel the Commonwealth.

This is a family-friendly event and helps the WWAST raise awareness and funds for their signature event, the WWAST Kids Camp, which empowers young boys and girls with amputations. Watch this 60 second video by WWAST: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-sZPLsRKqQ
