The Kannapolis Cannon Ballers pay homage to the city's mill history (Cannon Mills) and the Cannon Family that gave rise to the city of Kannapolis.
The Cannon Baller image evokes a family-oriented brand with the sense of fun, all which can be felt while attending a Minor League Baseball game in Kannapolis.
The Cannon Baller brand exemplifies a community that was built by tough, hardworking millworkers who toiled in the Cannon Mill. Our All-American Cannon Baller is resilient, just like the residents of Kannapolis and our region that rose above the mill closing.
The Cannon Baller isn't afraid to take risks whether it is a dare devil shot out of a cannon or revitalizing a once-thriving downtown with a new streetscape and Sports & Entertainment Venue.
The mustachioed, fun-loving character typifies many of those that put Kannapolis on the map. Like the players that will proudly wear the Cannon Ballers uniform, our Cannon Baller rises above all competition while creating thrills for all who come to see him play.
