The TZ Boys Soccer teams got things going for the fall sports season with a sweep of Nanuet! The Varsity won 1-0 and the JV 2-0 to get the year moving in a positive direction! Congrats and we are looking forward to many more games this year! #WeqareTZ #DutchmenPride
Message from SOCSD & the Athletic Department
Tappan Zee High School will begin home contests this weekend for the interscholastic athletic program! Here are some things to know:
The TZ Athletic Department will allow parents/guardians to drive their own children to and from away contests, if necessary. The protocol is for the parent/guardian to email the coach and Athletic Director Bill Pilla (wpilla@socsd.org) with the request. Parents/guardians who wish to have their student athlete drive themselves must refer to the revised Transportation section of the Athletics Handbook and submit the Student Athlete Self-Transportation Request Form.
As per Section 1, our governing body, no away fans are allowed at this time to Section 1 sporting events. If you are driving your child to an away game, please keep in mind you will not be allowed to stay at the contest. View the Section 1 news release here.
Please contact Athletic Director Bill Pilla with questions at wpilla@socsd.org or (845) 680-1640.
