Away Game Protocol: We ride to all games as a team. Players will dress in their uniforms prior to departure from BMS. For players to ride home with a guardian a Travel Release Form MUST be completed, stamped in the main office, and given to a coach prior to the game bus departing BMS. Dress in uniform before leaving BMS, meet outside locker rooms, then board the bus. Pack snacks. If a transportation issue arises we will do our best to communicate as soon as possible so that self-transport can be arranged.
