Peterborough Petes News Release
(Peterborough, ON) - The Peterborough Petes hockey club is currently recruiting Billet families for draft picks who have moved to Peterborough to play for the Petes primary affiliate team, the Peterborough Petes U18 AAA hockey club for the 2023-24 season.
The Petes organization works diligently to ensure our players are in a suitable housing environment and Billet families opening their homes plays a key role in making this a reality for our players. Peterborough Petes Billet Families play a major role in the team's success, both on and off the ice. The Petes could not operate without the support of so many great billet families in our community.
"The partnership with the PMHC and Peterborough Petes U18 AAA hockey club has been great, allowing our draft picks the opportunity to continue their growth and development as players and people on & off the ice, right here in Peterborough. This development model has proven to be highly successful, with many players becoming full time members of the Peterborough Petes." stated Petes General Manager Michael Oke.
Michael Simpson, Quinton Page, Sam McCue, Dylan Woulds, Brody Partridge, and Easton Rye are all players who spent time playing with the Petes U18 hockey club before making the jump to the OHL Petes.
Families taking part in the Billet Family Program receive two (2) lower bowl season tickets, a room and board stipend ($115 per week, per player), invitations to exclusive team events, flex tickets for use throughout the season, and other team perks and benefits.
If you are interested in learning more about the Billet Family Program, or would like to apply to become a billet family, contact Walter Di Clemente at (705) 743-3681 or email info@gopetesgo.com.
The Petes are back in action on Thursday, October 5 when they host the Sudbury Wolves at the PMC. Puck drop is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. Tickets can be purchased. Fans can also catch the game on YourTV and Freq 90.5.
