With the Winter Garden Squeeze season set to begin Friday, May 31, the team is looking for families to participate in its host family program and fill the current need of hosting three of its players.

As part of the program, host families take in one or more players for the course of the season, from late May to the beginning of August, and receive benefits like complimentary season tickets to the Squeeze for each member of the family, special recognition during the final homestand of the season, and would have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to form a bond with a college baseball player during a formative portion of his career in the sport and in life.

For details on qualifying for the program, email Squeeze General Manager Adam Bates, [email protected]. To apply for the program, visit bit.ly/fcslhost.
