All of our players are housed with Host Families that graciously open up their homes for a couple months. Being a Host Family is not as rare as people might think. Many families host young players across the country in minor league sports like hockey, basketball, football, and baseball. The program is similar to what many schools practice with their foreign exchange student program.
“The host family program was a great experience for me as a young adult, and an incredible asset as I was growing in my career,” said Former Kansas City Royals Pitcher and Oilmen former Head Coach Justin Huisman. “It made a home away from home for my summer teammates and me. Without it, the goal of getting drafted and making it to the big leagues would have been much more difficult. More than that, it created a bond with a family I still hold dear to this day.”
