WS bus will meet Woonsocket and Sanborn Central players at junction. Because of this arrangement we are asking as many as possible JH and even JV players ride home after games with their parents. Please let me know if you will or will not be able to take your son home after respective games. If you cannot give them ride home after game, that is OK as we will make sure they get home.  Just trying to get an idea of how many we will have on buses on way home.
