B.C. Ballers

From BR Bullpen

The B.C. Ballers are a 2007 expansion team to the Pacific International League Summer Collegiate Baseball League. The Bombers are dedicated and designed to providing minor league level competition for NCAA players that wish to continue on into professional baseball as well as some former professionals who are currently NCAA eligible. The Ballers operate under the style of an Independent Minor League team: playing nightly in stadiums which seat thousands of fans, using wood bats and minor league specification equipment, and experiencing road trips across the Northwest United States and Southwest Canada between games. Ballers athletes are unpaid, which gives them the opportunity to experience the rigors of professional baseball without going pro so that they can maintain their NCAA eligibility. The B.C. Ballers live with host families in the same manner as Single A and Independent League players.
