Welcome Coaches....

It is a great honor and responsibility to coach children in the CYO Program.  As a coach, there are many tasks which are your responsibility.  We recommend selecting an assistant coach(es) as well as a team parent to help coordinate communications with the other parents.  Some of your tasks will include:

  • - Attending mandatory coaches meeting before the start of the season
  • - Communicating your weekly practice schedule and games to your parents
  • - Managing concession and/or door on your team assigned day
  • - Checking game schedule regularly to confirm game times for the upcoming weekend

    ***Please note game times/locations are subject to change, and it is your responsibility to confirm the game information weekly

Zero Tolerance Act - CYO Athletics will not tolerate any abusive behavior towards players, officials, or other spectators.  They are committed to maintaining a safe positive atmosphere for youth.

CYO Prayers

Opening Prayer

Father in Heaven, we ask your blessing on the game we are about to play.  Give each one of us the courage to play this game in a manner which by our words and our actions is pleasing to you.  Let us enter into this competition in a spirit of sportsmanship and with a respect for the members of the opposing team.  We ask You, Father, to bless each one of us and especially the coaches, officials and players.  Keep us under the protection of Your, Son, Jesus Christ, and help us to be aware of His presence with us in this game.  Amen.

Closing Prayer

Thank you Lord for this game.  We hope we played and will always play in a manner that is pleasing to you.  Amen
