BILLET FAMILIES NEEDED FOR FINNISH TEAMS ATTENDING SPRING THAW TOURNAMENT THIS APRIL
NMHA and the Newmarket Renegades are excited about a great international opportunity coming to the SPRING THAW tournament running April 10-12.

Three teams from Finland confirmed in joining the U14 A/AA tournament and possible warm-up/exhibition games.

These youth teams have reached out to the NMHA for assistance in finding 22 families that may be interested in billeting groups of two or 3 players and chaperones during this time period.

  • This would be outstanding opportunity to show how supportive our NMHA families can be to the international hockey community!

  • 22-23 billet families needed - taking 2 players each (1 group has 3 players, but could likely add one more billet and make one group a single)
  •  
  • 3 Finnish teams are competing in our NMHA Spring Thaw Tournament - running April 10, 11, 12
  •  
  • Nights needed- April 9th, 10th & 11th (**Arriving late afternoon on the 9th, then the team is leaving for Pearson to catch a flight home to Finland after their games are completed Sunday)
  •  
  • Assist players with breakfast on the 10th & 11th, plus help provide anything else they may need to make their stay comfortable
  •  
  • Possible travel assistance would be needed to taking the players to/from Magna.
  •  
  • The teams have buses lined up, so any other 'team' travel will be looked after

  • If you or someone you know that might be interested in hosting, please contact Todd Eves:
