What is a Billet?
In North America billet is a term used to describe a family offering room and board to youth players under 20 years old joining elite teams far from their hometown. They can also be called a host family as well. Coaches work with a Billet Coordinator to find appropriate families and make matches with players. A billet family should provide a "home away from home" for players during their temporary stay.
