BILLET FAMILIES

BECOME A RIDGE MEADOWS FLAMES BILLET FAMILY!

Every year, the Ridge Meadows Flames welcome young men into our city. These players range from 16 to 20 years old and their stay can last from a few days to a few years!

When these young men become a member of the Ridge Meadows Flames, they do not live on their own and therefore require accommodations. This is where the billet family becomes very important, as each player is placed in a home in the local community. The billet family offers a place to sleep, support, feed and provide a positive environment for a young athlete.

Billeting can be a very exciting and rewarding experience for all those willing to open their homes to dedicated hockey players. Many families who have billeted in the past usually look back at their experience with fond memories. In fact, many families still stay in touch with players they have billeted in the past as they move through the university and professional ranks.
