Second Home Team
Billeting provides a home away from home for more than 1,200 junior hockey players across the country.
This is the story of one of those homes. Over more than a decade, the Grays have opened their home and hearts to nearly a dozen Ottawa 67’s players, providing meals, humour and guidance along the way.
This short doc was produced during our undergraduate studies in Carleton University's journalism program in collaboration with Scott Wheeler for the fourth year production class' Twenty-fifth Hour program.
Special thanks to the Gray family for welcoming us into their home, as they have done for many young hockey players.
