DISCOUNTS AND ASSISTANCE:

2. Families with three children in Blizzard don't pay a regular season registration fee for the youngest child. Register her as normal, and the rebate will be applied to your account after registration.

3. Jersey deposits ($100) are assessed to player accounts. Jerseys are returned after each season.
Players pay for items they keep:  team socks ($25-30), a re-useable name bar for the back of their jersey ($20) and a tracksuit or other Blizzard apparel if so desired.

4. All Blizzard players can benefit from the even split program discount by selling the minimum 400 tickets (per family).
More than 90 per cent of Blizzard families choose to sell tickets and the average player earns over $500 to offset fees or pay for equipment.
If a player is opting out of ticket sales, the $200 final installment for the full fee is due no later than November 15.

5. Parents can earn money to offset fees by working the Sunday ticket draws. Workers are paid $40 per draw into their player's account.
Draws are every Sunday during hockey season between Noon and 3 pm. 25 draws x $40 = $1000.

6. Several financial assistance programs are available for low income players. We can assist with your application.  You need your Canada Revenue Agency Notice of Assessment and the receipt from your Blizzard registration.

Our fundraising tools make hockey affordable for everyone:

Example:

A player's family sells 50 tickets weekly and one family member assists at seven ticket draws throughout the season.
Player account: Ticket earnings ($312.50) +  Worker earnings ($280.00) =  $592.50.    Player's $525 fees and $25 socks are covered.
