Elders make good billet families too.

Think billeting is only for families with kids at home? Not at all.

Elders and older adults can make some pretty great billet families. Our players come to La Ronge from different communities and backgrounds, and for many of them, this is their first time living in the North. Living with someone from our community gives them a chance to experience a lot more than hockey.

It might mean sitting around the kitchen table hearing stories, learning about our community, trying new foods, getting out on the land, learning about culture and traditions, or simply having someone to talk to at the end of the day.

And it goes both ways.

Having a billet can bring some extra life into the house - someone to join you for supper, tell you about his day, help carry in the groceries, shovel the step, move something heavy or lend a hand with the little things around the house.

You don’t need to know hockey. You don’t need to have kids at home. And you don’t need to entertain them.

Sometimes a quieter home, a home-cooked meal and someone who genuinely cares how their day went is exactly what a player living away from his own family needs. And sometimes having a young person around who can reach the top shelf isn’t so bad either.

Billeting gives our players a home here, but it also gives them a chance to actually get to know the people and community they’re playing for.

If you have a spare bedroom and some room at your kitchen table, we’d love to talk to you.

“We’d billet, but our family is way too busy.”

Work. School. Hockey. Dance. Practices. Supper. Bedtime. Survive. Repeat. We get it.

Having a billet isn't just adding another person to the hustle and bustle of life. It can mean adding someone to your family.

• Someone who plays mini sticks with your kid while you're making supper.
• Someone who throws a ball around outside, helps with hockey, plays a video game, or keeps your little one entertained while you're trying to get out the door.
• Someone your kids get excited to see at the end of the day.
• Someone who can become a role model, a big brother, a teacher, a teammate and another person in their corner.

Billets join the rhythm of your household. They eat the meals you're already making. They're there for the busy nights, rushed mornings, practices, messy kitchens and normal family life.

And for kids, having a billet can be pretty special. They get another person to learn from, look up to and hang out with — and, let's be real, sometimes kids listen way better when their billet big brother tells them to clean up their toys. 😂

You don't need a quiet house, a perfect schedule or endless free time. Your busy family might be exactly what makes a player feel at home. You don’t need to create a special life for a billet. You just bring them into yours.

If you have a spare bedroom but have always thought your family was “too busy” to billet, talk to us. We might change your mind!

You might be a billet family if... you have a spare bedroom. That’s really where it starts.

Maybe your kids have moved out and you have an empty room.

Maybe you have young kids who would LOVE having an Ice Wolf around.

Maybe your house is already busy and adding one more person to the mix doesn’t seem that wild.

Maybe you’re an Elder who could give a player a chance to experience more of our community, culture and life in the North.

Maybe you live alone.

Maybe you’re a couple with no kids.

Maybe you know absolutely nothing about hockey.

Billet families don’t all look the same. What matters is providing a safe, welcoming place for a player to live while he’s away from home.

If you have a spare room, it might be worth a conversation.

Have a spare bedroom? Have you ever thought about billeting?

The Ice Wolves are looking for a few more billet homes for this season, and we’re hoping to reach some families who maybe haven’t considered it before.

You don’t have to be a hockey family. You don’t have to have kids at home. You don’t need to know anything about junior hockey.

Billets provide a player with a bedroom, meals and a place to call home while they’re living away from their own families.

Billet families receive:
• $600/month
• Season tickets
• Support from the Ice Wolves throughout the season

There are all kinds of billet homes - families with young kids, busy families, empty nesters, couples, individuals and Elders. There really isn’t one “type” of billet family.

If you’ve got a spare room and you’re even a little curious, send us a message. We’re happy to answer questions without any expectation that you commit.

And if you can’t billet, please share this or send it to someone you think might be a good fit.

We have players who need homes, and we could really use our community’s help finding them.
