Cedar Valley residents, Waterloo Bucks Host Family applications are now open for the 2027 Season. Being a Host Family is one of the most fulfilling ways to enjoy your summer. Not only do you receive complimentary tickets to every Bucks game and into special host family events, but it also gives you the opportunity to become a part of baseball history.

The Bucks Host Family program has matched student-athletes from all over the country with local families for the past 32 summers. This program has played an integral part in helping hundreds of players live out their dreams of playing professional baseball, including the likes of current major leaguers Duncan Davitt (Cincinnati Reds) and Kyle Leahy (St. Louis Cardinals) who lived with a Host Family on Sidehill Dr. in Waterloo, Brycen Mautz (Cardinals) who lived with a Host Family on Quail Hollow Ln. in Cedar Falls, Zach McKinstry (Detroit Tigers) who lived with a Host Family on Oakwood Dr. in Waterloo, and A.J. Puk (Arizona Diamondbacks) who lived with a Host Family on Lois Ln. in Waterloo.

Numerous exceptional relationships have been forged between Bucks players and their Host Familes. Graduations, weddings, and holidays have often been shared together after the season leading to the Bucks player becoming an honorary member of the family.

To apply for the 2027 Season (click here) or give the Bucks office a call at (319) 232-0500. Bucks staff members can answer any questions you may have and even connect you to current host families.
