Billeting: A Junior Hockey Tradition

If you’re interested in becoming a Power Billet or have questions, please contact Kris Marion at Billet@westbendhockey.com or (414) 507-6012. Help make a player’s hockey journey easier by providing a welcoming home away from home.

The West Bend Power roster features elite players from outside SE Wisconsin. Billet families offer crucial housing support, enabling these athletes to pursue their hockey dreams while integrating into the community.

This program connects local families with out-of-state players for the season, supporting their education, part-time work, and hockey careers. It’s a partnership that fosters growth and opportunity.

Moving away is challenging for young athletes. We seek families offering a positive environment to ease this transition, while players contribute to the household, building lasting bonds.

By opening your home, you help a player achieve their dreams. This experience often rewards host families with lifelong friendships, a tradition cherished by many.

Learn more or apply by filling out the Billet Family Application or contacting us directly.

We deeply value our billet families’ commitment. The West Bend Power, our players, and their families thank you for your generosity and support.

What Our Families Say

“Little did we know when we opened up our home to become a billet family that we would forever open our hearts to our 3rd son/brother. Billeting has been the best, most rewarding thing we’ve done as a family.”

“We have billeted amateur players for the past several years now. It has been an incredibly rewarding experience. Each young man has been a great addition to the family….super ‘big brothers’ to both our hockey playing son and our non-sport playing son. It’s been very rewarding sharing experiences on and off the ice.”

“Our family has been billeting hockey players in the Milwaukee region for the last 5 years and it has been an incredibly positive experience for us. We have had the opportunity to share the intensive hockey experience with these exceptional young men and their families. We have built lifelong relationships and are thrilled to have been a positive influence in their hockey careers.”
