Cazadores de Artemisa (English: Artemisa Hunters) is a Cuban baseball team based in the city of Artemisa, representing the province of the same name. They are a member of the Cuban National Series and play their home games at 26 de Julio Stadium, opened in 1968 and with a capacity of 6,000 spectators.[1]
History
Decades before the formation of the modern Artemisa team, an amateur club by the same name played in the Cuban Amateur League, organized by the Unión Atlética Amateur.[2] This version of Artemisa was managed at one point by León Rojas, and included players such as Francisco Quicutis; Quicutis later managed the team to two Amateur League titles in 1958 and 1959.[3][2]
In 2011, Cuban government decided to split La Habana Province (not including the City of Havana) into two newly created administrative divisions: Artemisa Province and Mayabeque Province. This led to the disappearance of the La Habana team and to the creation of the Artemisa and Huracanes de Mayabeque teams, who started playing in the 2011–12 Cuban National Series season.[4][5][6]
