The Jacksonville Ospreys are the hottest team in the Old North State League and are built on two pillars: Player development and bringing our community together! Some of the benefits of playing with the Ospreys are:
Full Free Gym Access: All players have full FREE access to Onslow Fitness, Jacksonville, NC's premier full service gym.
Field / Training Access: All players will have regular access to our ballpark. Cages, screens, batting turtles, pitching machine, on field hitting, etc. - you got it. Reps is the name of the game.
Close to multiple beaches: If you like soaking up some rays at the beach, swimming, kayaking, fishing, or any number of out door water sports, We got you covered. Jacksonville is a short 30 minute drive to some of NC's top beaches such as North Topsail Beach and Emerald Isle!
Transportation: All games are a short 2 hour avg. or less drive from our home field via 55 passenger coach bus with power outlets, TVs, and the infamous karaoke machine! (Ok, ok, so the singing machine is for special occasions and for those who can actually sing...)
Great community support: You will be playing in front of the largest fan base in the ONSL! The locals love their Ospreys and will be waiting for autographs and photos after every game! Theme nights and baseball fun is a must at EVERY Osprey home game!
The best host families: Our host families are truly the best and kindest families we could ask for! They truly are the backbone of Jacksonville Ospreys Baseball and love hosting players to help them feel right at home!
Great post game meals: We have excellent sponsors to help provide full course post game meals to ensure that all players, home and away, are fed and nurtured. The Ospreys also provide pregame protein bars, snacks, and Gatorade before and during all games.
Free Ice Cream: Say what!? Yep, it's true - all players get FREE ice cream from NC's #1 ice cream shop - Sweet Spot of Emerald Isle!
Employment Opportunities: If you are seeking employment opportunities, one of our sponsors, Express Employment Professionals can easily assist you in getting in some hours locally.
