Long Beach Armada News Release


The Long Beach Armada is looking for Host Families for the 2009 season.

As the team prepares for its 5th Anniversary Season in the community, the organization is looking for community members to host players from mid-May through early September in exchange for season tickets and other exclusive perks.

The host family program is common throughout minor league baseball, and host families have played an important role in the success of the Long Beach Armada for the past four seasons.

While some players on the Armada's 2009 roster are local to Southern California, many come from out of state and need a place to live during training camp and the GBL season. Players are between 21-34 years old with previous playing experience from college to AAA. By placing players in the homes of fans, host families become an integrated part of the organization with a special insight on the team throughout the season.

Host families will receive four free full season reserved-level tickets and an invitation to an exclusive player/host family dinner. For more information or if you are interested in becoming a host family for a member of the Long Beach Armada, please contact Mike Callin at (562) 427-HITS (4487) or email mcallin@goldenbaseball.com.
