Can You Host a Future Major League Ball Player?

This summer you might potentially be hosting a future major league player, such as Kyle Zimmer (University of San Francisco '12), pictured below, as an example, who played for the Aces during the summer of 2010 and was selected as the fifth overall pick in the 2012 Major League Baseball Draft, by the Kansas City Royals, (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzt1sVISrsw) and is projected be in their pitching rotation some time during the summer.

Your Alexandria Aces will be playing in their ninth season in Port City, this year, and are actively seeking host families for the upcoming 2016 season!

Do you have a spare bedroom with access to a washer or dryer during the upcoming months of June, July, and early August? Do you have a son who plays baseball and you might like to have a live-in coach with your family during this summer?

Imagine, years from now, telling family and friends of an Aces player you hosted this summer who made it to a major league team. It has happened to many Aces host families in the past, and, it could happen to you in 2016! Here’s how to do it: please contact Amy Goodrich ([email protected]) for this upcoming season. Amy will connect you with a player for you to host who will be coming to Alexandria to play ‘lights out’ baseball at Frank Mann Field.

As an IRS-deemed 501(c)(3) not-for-profit Alexandria community-based organization, host families are critically important to the Aces, and we sincerely thank you in advance for taking the opportunity to host a player, this summer.
