Amerex Partners with the City of Trussville to Build Miracle League Field in Trussville Sports Complex

The City of Trussville and Amerex are proud to announce a meaningful partnership to build a Miracle League field as part of Trussville’s baseball and softball complex. Amerex Miracle Field will provide an inclusive space for children and adults of all abilities to participate in sports, extending the joy of teamwork and movement to everyone who wants to play.

Designed by architect Ryan Vernon of Lathan Architects, the Miracle League field will feature a specialized surface that allows individuals with disabilities to safely participate. The field will also include accessible dugouts tailored for children with special needs, ensuring participants feel included. In addition to hosting adaptive baseball games, the field will be used for other activities, including games for younger, T-ball athletes. 

 “This Miracle League field is more than just a part of our sports complex — it’s a place where memories will be made and the entire community can come together,” said Buddy Choat, Trussville Mayor. “Thanks to the generous donation from Amerex, we are proud to bring this space to fruition not only to meet the needs right here in our community but for people from all over Alabama.”

The new field will be integrated into the Trussville Parks and Recreation baseball program, creating opportunities for high school students and other community members to volunteer as buddies for Miracle League players. While a nearby Miracle League field exists in Moody, Trussville officials worked closely with the Miracle League organization to ensure this project would complement, rather than compete with, existing programs. 

“At Amerex and all of the McWane Inc. family of companies, we are committed to protecting lives, whether through fire safety or by investing in projects that build stronger, more inclusive communities,” said Harrison Bishop, President and CEO of Amerex. “We are excited to be in a position where we can bring this Miracle League field to life and look forward to seeing the impact it will have on the Trussville community.”

The project reflects years of planning, and construction is already underway with an anticipated opening on April 1, 2025.
