A delegation from the Western Major Baseball League (WMBL) and the Swift Current 57's baseball club attended a regular City of Swift Current council meeting, May 8. WMBL President Kevin Kvame made a presentation about the league, which currently has 12 teams. He noted that the facilities used by the WMBL teams in all 12 communities are on a good standard. He encouraged the City to have a master plan for the ongoing modernization of Mitchell Field and he said the only matter currently out of compliance at the Swift Current field is the lack of dressing room facilities. The Swift Current 57's won the championship in 2016 and the team will be defending their WMBL title under their new name and team colours when they open the 2017 season at home against Moose Jaw, June 1.
