The Rebels are currently looking for billet families to provide a home for athletes who are new to town. The host parents supply meals, a bedroom and a friendly home atmosphere in return for $450 per month. Billeting is a very rewarding experience and is pivotal for the success of the team and the players both on and off the ice.  Residents who are interested in becoming a Billet Family please contact Brett Tiffen at 306-640-9168 or Dale Berner at 306-640-9969.

The home opener for the Southern Rebels will be against Carrot River Thunder on Saturday, October 15 at the new Southland Co-op Centre at 7:30 p.m. The venue is fully licensed and the concession has a full menu so come down for supper, a drink, and cheer on the boys. Let’s pack the rink.

The Southern Rebels value the ongoing community support from a wide range of businesses in and around the Assiniboia area and they take this opportunity to thank each and every one for their continuing support. The 2022-2023 season in the new Southland Co-op Centre will provide residents with one of the best ways to advertise your business in the community and become part of our team.
