Billeting is a hockey tradition and an integral part of the Elite Hockey Academy.  Our student-athletes are between the ages of 15 and 17. They come from throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe to join our program of academic and athletic excellence.  Becoming a host family to a player allows these young men the opportunity to pursue their goals of playing hockey at the collegiate and professional level.

As a host family, you will welcome a young man into your home and provide for him a warm environment during their season (Late August-June). The players are uniquely driven and motivated young men who will become like sons, brothers, and nephews to the families they join.

We welcome hockey families, parents with young children, singles, couples or retirees.  We work to match each player and host for a fit that will be great for all. They will bring energy and excitement to your home, and you will get to know a great bunch of parents and families that are part of our unique organization. 

As a host family, you can expect:

• Generous Monthly Stipend paid directly by EHA
• Families provide safe, caring & friendly home away from home from Sept to May
• We provide you with a Contact Person to address questions or concerns
• Players attend school Mon-Fri at Notre Dame High School of West Haven
• Families are not responsible to provide transportation
• Players have curfews and strict guidelines to maximize their academic and athletic futures!
