The Barrie Jr Sharks are looking for Billet Families to host players for our upcoming 2024-2025 season.
For more information on the billeting program please see below or contact Barrie Jr Sharks GM at jrsharks-gm@bwha.ca
Becoming a billet or host family is a tremendously rewarding experience for both the family and the player. Host families come in all shapes and sizes and being a hockey fan is not a requirement! Hosting a player in your home gives our players an opportunity to pursue their aspirations of playing junior hockey and beyond.
All of our players range between the ages of 15 to 21. To live in our beautiful community while playing for the Barrie Jr Sharks is a dream come true for many of them. Our players, while pursuing their hockey goals, will also be completing high school, enrolled in post-secondary education, or working part-time locally. In addition to those responsibilities they also volunteer within the Barrie Women's Hockey Association.
It is the mission of the Barrie Jr Sharks to provide the coaching and mentoring on and off the ice that will allow players to achieve and surpass their goals in hockey and education. Being a host parent is an integral part of helping our players and our organization accomplish that. The benefits of being a host family not only directly benefit your family but also the Barrie Women's Hockey Association community.
