The Purcellville Cannons will play an exhibition game against the National Native American team, the Life Warriors, on Tuesday night at Fireman's Field.

The Warriors team is comprised of players from Native American tribes and communities across the United States. 

"This exhibition game will be a great opportunity for our fans to see some of the best up-and-coming players in the game, and to celebrate the rich cultural diversity of our country,” said Purcellville Cannons Director of Operations Jim Singhas.  

The Cannons are a member of the collegiate Valley Baseball League. The team is made up of college players from across the country who are looking to develop their skills and gain experience playing at a high level of competition.
