BILLET FAMILIES
Billeting is an essential part of Junior Hockey and the Flin Flon Bombers are incredibly grateful to the families who open their homes to our players. They provide a welcoming environment, daily support, and help our athletes thrive both on and off the ice. We strive to find homes that will expose our players to a positive environment.
