The Hamden High School Field Hockey Team celebrated and raised awareness all week for National Teen Driver Safety Week.
BWP sponsored the purchase of t-shirts to raise awareness, which were worn by the student athletes during their game on Saturday, October 26, 2019. During the week leading up to the game, they wore their t-shirts to school.
The team was divided into 7 groups (1 for each rule plus ‘No Drugs’) and each group was given a pledge that corresponds with that rule. They went around school having classmates sign the pledges and once they’ve done that, they signed the back of the player’s t-shirt.
The 27 girls got over 2,000 signatures to pledge to follow the "7 Rules of the Road"
