Would You Like to Become a Billet Family for a Petes Player?

June 8, 2015 - Ontario Hockey League (OHL)
Peterborough Petes News Release


(Peterborough, ON)- The Peterborough Petes are inviting local families to submit applications to become a billet family for the 2015/16 season. Billet families provide a home away from home for Petes players and help maintain the standards and expectations our players are held to at the rink, at school, in the community, and at home.

Billet families are responsible for providing the following:

- A clean, smoke-free, welcoming home that a player will feel comfortable in

- A private room with a bed and good mattress

- A private desk/workspace for homework

- Nutritious meals and snacks

- Support of team rule enforcement including curfew, community engagement, academic standards, etc.

The Petes could not operate without the support of so many great billet families in our community. Families will receive the following as compensation:

- Two (2) regular bowl season tickets

- Room and board ($85 per week, per player)

- Invitations to exclusive team events

All potential billet families will undergo a home visit by Petes General Manager Michael Oke and Player Safety & Security Officer Walter Di Clemente, and each adult in the family will be required to complete a police check. To learn more about the billet program, or to apply for consideration, fill out an application online or contact Petes Office Administrator Cathie Webster by phone at (705) 743-3681 or by email.
