The Fox Cities Forge is proud to introduce Hannah Scholl, our Billet Coordinator and one of the driving forces behind creating a welcoming home-away-from-home for our players. Come meet her tomorrow, June 9 at our Billet Information Night, 6 pm at Appleton Family Ice Center.

Hannah is a kindergarten teacher, a mom of four hockey players, and someone whose life is deeply rooted in the hockey community. She understands firsthand the impact that supportive families, strong relationships, and a caring environment can have on a young athlete's experience.

With a heart for serving others, Hannah will play an important role in helping Forge players and billet families create lasting connections. From answering questions and supporting host families to helping players adjust to life in the Fox Cities, Hannah is committed to making every player feel at home and part of the Forge family from day one.

As we prepare for our inaugural season, we're grateful to have someone with Hannah's experience, compassion, and dedication leading our billet program.

Happy Motherโ€™s Day from the Fox Cities Forge ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™

Today we celebrate the moms, grandmas, guardians, billet moms, and all the amazing women who help make hockey possible. From early mornings and endless drives to snacks, support, encouragement, and unconditional love - thank you for everything you do behind the scenes.

As we build our Forge family, we are looking for caring billet families to help welcome our players to the Fox Cities. Opening your home can make a lifelong impact and gives these young athletes a place to feel supported, encouraged, and have a home away from home - just like moms do.

Please reach out to [email protected] for more information.

Behind every great player is a family cheering them on, and today we especially celebrate the incredible hockey moms who help make it all happen.
