Palomas de Cidra

Cidra Doves

League: Betances.
Division: Este de la Cordillera.
Nicknames: Sabaneros, Aves, La Paz.
Vivas: “¡Vuela paloma!” “Dame la mano!”

Almost certainly, the people of Cidra would have preferred a more fearsome name for their baseball team, but a town principally known for citron cultivation, colorful year-round flora, and the local avian life did not have much in the way of choice.

Mascot: Aversátil

(ave “bird” + versátil “versatile”)

Aversátil, the mascot of the Palomas de Cidra, is a brown pigeon with a come-hither look, a white belly and red wings decorated with dark red flamboyán flowers, with golden centers, as well as red talons and beak.
