Cape Catfish Host Family Guidelines

The Cape Catfish are looking for host families to welcome the team to Cape Girardeau. We offer many perks for our host families, including season tickets for your family, V.I.P. events and game day recognition. If you are interested in learning more about becoming a Cape Catfish host family, please complete the form below. We are looking forward to making the new Catfish feel welcome in Cape Girardeau.

A host family will have a bedroom and access to a bathroom for the player.

A family is welcome to host 2 players and they may share one room provided that they each have their own bed. The young men are expected to keep the bedroom and bathroom clean. 

A host family will be asked to provide access to a laundry facility.

The players may do their own laundry or you may do the laundry for them. Either is acceptable.

The host family is asked to have food available for the players within reason.

If the player wants special items such as drinks, snacks etc., they will be responsible for those items.

The Prospect League schedule is very demanding with 60 games in 70 days, including 30 of those on the road.

We ask that the players have a place to get plenty of rest away from home activities. There will be times when they are on the road and may arrive home in the early a.m. hours. You may need to suggest they get more rest at times.  

Underage drinking is not allowed.

We will not support any players under the age of 21 drinking alcoholic beverages.  Some of the players will be of drinking age, but we will encourage limited drinking as the schedule is very demanding on the athletes. 

The host family will be responsible for communicating the house rules and guidelines to the players.

If any issues should occur during their stay in your home, we will be available to assist and reassign them if needed. 

The student-athletes do have NCAA eligibility remaining. Therefore, there are specific guidelines they will be required to follow.

We will be providing each host family information on the specific guidelines as well as be available to answer any questions you may have. Contact littlelori6@gmail.com or call us at (573) 803-3103 with any questions you may have about being a host family!
