Host Families

Adopt A Rebel

Each summer families in and around the historic town of New Market open up their homes to the selected members of our team. This is done totally on behalf of the young men we invite to become members of our organization. Our host families provide all the incidentals each player may need, within reason, to make his stay with us a rewarding and enjoyable experience.

The incoming players arrive in New Market around Memorial Day each year. The exact date varies but it is always on Sunday of the week the season begins. Our regular season begins on the first Friday in June and runs through the last week of July. If the Rebels make the playoffs, the season could be extended by as much as two additional weeks.

Benefits

The player will become an integral member of your family and will allow you the following benefits:

  • You will become more involved in your community.
  • You will make new friends from all over the country who share the same interests as you.
  • Your family will attend special team events.
  • Your family will receive free season passes.
  • The player will be a positive role model for your children.
  • You will have the opportunity to make a positive impact on the future of a young man.
  • You have the potential to develop a long-term friendship.
  • You have the chance of getting to know a future Major League Baseball Star.

The Adopt A Rebel program is one of the most important aspects of the New Market Rebel Organization. It is, in fact, the foundation of our program. Good guest-host relationships are a top priority in our year to year operation. If our goals are met, lifelong relationships will be established which will serve as lasting mementos for the player and the host family.
