Billet Families Needed for 2010-11 Season

Boston Warrior

“Adopt a Warrior”

Billeting Information for Potential Host Families
 

Each season the Boston Warrior Tier 1 Hockey Club recruits talented players from all over the world. In order to take advantage of this hockey opportunity the players need host families who are willing to share their homes with these terrific student athletes.

Our Billet Family Program plays a major role in our team's success both on and off the ice. It takes special people to open their homes and hearts to our players and we take the utmost care to ensure our players are placed in environments that are conducive to care, understanding and safety. 

We ask that our players be treated like any other member of the family. It is important that the player respects the rules of his host family and the host family respects the rules of the hockey club. The values and principles for success that are essential to become a member of the Boston Warrior Hockey Club will be demanded at the rink, in the home, in the community and in school.

Each billet family is provided with a monthly stipend of $450 to offset the costs of living and meals for the players.  Billet families will also receive season tickets to Boston Warrior home games.

Any families interested in billeting a Boston Warrior hockey player this year are asked to contact: Mike Condon at (781)308-8132.
