Welcome back to another exciting season of the Golden Rockets.  I am the new billet coordinator for the Golden Rockets and am looking forward to meeting and working with all of our billet families.

Billeting can be a very exciting and rewarding experience for all those willing to open up their homes to young man living their dream of playing hockey  in the KIJHL. Many families who have billeted in the past usually look back at their experience with fond memories.  In fact, many families still keep in contact with their billets after they are finished playing hockey. These players and their families become life long friends.

Whether you're new or a long time resident of Golden, billeting is a great way to meet people.  When you walk into the Arena for a Rockets game, often you will notice small groups of people standing around talking.  These groups are usually the billet families talking with other billets and/or the players' families.

We have established billet guide lines so that both our players and billet families understand what is expected of them while a player is living in their home. However, in reality not every player/family match will be met with un-denying success. Sometimes chemistry and/or expectations might be lacking to continue on with the relationship in a positive manner for one or both parties.  When this happens, we will make our best attempt towards making the necessary changes to ensure everyone is happy and comfortable with their arrangement.

Besides being a great experience, billet families will be paid a monthly amount of $500.00 per player to open their home to a player.  Also, each family is given season tickets for their entire family.
