We are so excited to have you join our team this season! Being a Marlins host family
is a rewarding experience.
Over the course of the season you and your family will develop a unique and
memorable relationship with a student-athlete working towards his dream of
playing professional baseball. Since our inception in 2010, numerous families and
individuals have opened their homes and welcomed players from across multiple
countries.
The Coastal Plain League considers host families the foundation of our league. A
player’s experience starts in your home and before you know it, they are part of your
family.
Our Host Family Coordinator Darleen White has worked countless hours to select
dedicated host families to help us achieve our mission of providing a positive, happy,
and fun life experience for each player as he transitions from their colleges and
hometowns to the Town of Morehead City and the Morehead City Marlins.
With the help of our fi eld manager, Sam Carel, we have made it a priority to match
you with a player suitable to you and your family’s lifestyle. We require our players to
respect your expectations and be dedicated to their performance on the fi eld.
As the Morehead City Marlins Owner, it is my goal to ensure your host-family
experience is the best. Our team is commi ed to building strong lasting relationships
with you, your family, and your player(s).
You are an important part of this team; and as our teammate, we encourage you to
share your thoughts, feedback, and stories with us anytime. We are always here to
listen and support you. Cheers to a fun, successful, memorable, and Championship
season.
Lets Go Marlins
