The Renfrew Wolves are looking for local families willing to open their homes to young hockey players joining the team mid-season.
The junior hockey club continues to search for billet families, including a long-term placement for one recent addition to the roster.
Owner and General Manager Carl Robillard says billet homes are essential to helping players pursue opportunities to learn, develop and advance to the next level while playing in the Ottawa Valley.
Beyond supporting the team, becoming a billet family can also create lasting relationships, with connections that continue long after a player’s time in Renfrew comes to an end.
The responsibility also comes with benefits for host families, including financial compensation and other support to help make the experience manageable throughout the season.
Families interested in getting involved can contact the team by emailing Tina Perry at billets@renfrewwolves.com.
