With the CIAC expanding rules on allowing HS players to play together this summer, TeamCT has offered up a HS “Play Day” Just like in the winter sessions, we will be having 2 teams. A U17, (Rising 9th, 10th and 11th Grades) and a U20 (Rising 12th and 2020 Senior Class). This is a great opportunity for the boys in the program to get together for a couple of games due to the time that was missed.

Please contact Coach Devine with any questions that may arise.
