A word about scholastic hockey in town

The Rocky Hill hockey Coop consists of several different athletes from multiple schools. 

Rocky Hill, of course, is the host program. 

The team is compiled of players from schools that come from over the Central Connecticut area. 

The players come from Bristol Central and Bristol Eastern along with Haddam-Killingworth, Middletown, Plainville and Vinal Tech – covering a wide area.

The program is member of CIAC’s Division III.

All TBE readers, supporters and donors                

The Bristol Edition will be limiting the number of stories non-members and free readers may access each week. This decision is based on our financial projections and, most certainly, to remind people that TBE is serious about providing accurate, timely and thorough reporting for Bristol. To do this we have devised a financial support structure that makes unlimited access extremely affordable, beginning with a $6 monthly donation.                

  • Non-members will be able to access four (4) articles per week.                
  • Free readers and people who have subscribed by email will be able to access four (4) articles per week.                
  • Donors and financial supporters will have unlimited access as long as they log in.                

Note: Donors may have to contact TBE if they find they are being limited, since we will need to set up a membership account for you. Email editor@bristoledition.org for instructions. Sorry for any inconvenience. People with financial difficulties may write editor@bristoledition.org to be considered for free access.
