After impressing many with their skills last
year, Hungary’s under-16 national hockey team is returning for the 2017
Richmond International Bantam Midget Hockey Tournament.
However, billet family homes for the players
are urgently needed during their stay from Dec. 26 to Jan. 4. The players are
all 15 years old. An honorarium of $200 per player will be given.
“This is a great opportunity for our
community and a great experience for your family,” says Isabel Angeles, who is
heading up the host group. “Ideally, if you have room for two players more than
would be great.”
Angeles says if this is an opportunity you
are interested in, email ribmhtbillets@richmondminorhockey.com.
The 37th annual Richmond International Bantam
Midget Hockey Tournament, sponsored by Sheraton, Marriott and Hilton Vancouver
Airport Hotels features teams at the Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 levels from
mostly throughout Canada and the U.S. It will be played at the Richmond Ice
Centre, Minoru Arenas and the Richmond Olympic Oval from Dec. 26 to 31.
