[edit] Team Bio
The Brewster Whitecaps are a Summer Collegiate Baseball team playing in the Cape Cod Baseball League, the nation's most elite summer collegiate league. The Whitecaps play their home games at Whitecaps Field in Brewster, MA, a facility built specially for the team to start the 2007 season. The Brewster Whitecaps invest in actively recruiting and training top players, and have hosted some of the best collegiate athletes from throughout the United States and Canada, including several Major League players.
The Brewster Whitecaps, like other summer college baseball teams, are dedicated and designed to provide minor league-style competition for NCAA players that wish to continue on into professional baseball and routinely send players to the MLB Drafts. The Whitecaps operate in the model of an Independent Minor League team: recruiting athletes, playing nightly before fans in stadiums which seat thousands, using wood bats and minor league specification equipment, and experiencing road trips between games. Like all other summer collegiate players, the Brewster Whitecaps are unpaid in order to maintain their NCAA eligibility, and live with host families in the same manner as Single A and Independent League players.
- Like All Cape Cod Baseball League Games, the Brewster Whitecaps games are free to the public. A donation can be offered at the gate.
