Message from the TCS Board TCS families,
As you no doubt have heard by now, a player on the Bishop Feehan hockey team was seriously injured while on the ice and the community has banded together in different ways to do anything we can to help.
At our February TCS board meeting, our fundraising coordinator reported back on our fundraising efforts and we are very happy to announce that the calendar raffle was an enormous success. With that in mind, your board voted to make a helpful donation to the A.J. Quetta fundraiser to help their family with expenses. This donation is a result of all of the efforts from all of our TCS families.
Beyond that, you can also help out by clicking on the links below to either buy 50/50 raffle tickets on the Boston Bruins raffle website (this raffle runs through 2/13 and currently the total funds are over $45,000), or you can also purchase swag in the ‘AJ’s Army’ store.

Additionally, as we start to turn the corner towards the last couple of months of our season, we are already looking ahead at plans for next season. If you have any interest in considering a board position, please contact any board member for more information or to get a link to listen in to the next board meeting in March.
Thank you,
TCS Board

TCS Quarantine Requirements:
For any participant who tests positive, or is considered close contact, TCS will require a minimum of a 10 day quarantine. You will also need to follow CDC and Local BOH’s guidance for any quarantine or order to isolate that is extended beyond the ten days. We will not be using negative test results as a way to reduce the quarantine time.
If a player or coach tests positive, or is considered a close contact to someone who has, it’s important that you reach out to Susie Campbell, the COVID Safety Director for TCS. (Call/text 781-775-5525 or
) as soon as you receive the information. She will work to outline any required quarantine from hockey and impact to the team through contact tracing.
We truly appreciate your diligence and know it will take our entire community to get through this.
Sincerely,
TCS Board

be determined whom or what town is at fault, they shall forfeit the game. If it cannot be
determined who is at fault or it is unsafe to continue the game, it will be stopped and the
Disciplinary Committee will make a decision.
- The South Shore Conference will establish a discipline committee to
investigate and conduct a hearing if appropriate, concerning any major
