Practices
· Practices will be held at Nativity of Our Lord or local school gyms.
Games – We do not host any home games due to lack of facilities. Once game schedule is released, you can access directions from this website, under "directions" tab.
Game Schedule – A scheduling meeting is planned and attended by all coaches participating in Region 11. Schedules are not usually completed and confirmed until the beginning of September, usually the first week of school. If your player plays on a travel team it is important to forward their travel schedule to their coaches prior to the meeting. Every attempt is made to avoid conflict.
What to Bring – All athletes should wear sneakers, the appropriate size knee pads, volleyball and water bottle to all practices and games.
Uniforms –Uniforms are included in the registration/uniform fee and each athlete will keep their uniform. The uniform will be used for 2 seasons. Upon registering for the 2nd season, athlete will only pay the registration fee. If the athlete requests/requires a new uniform, one must be selected at the time of registration in season 2.
Pictures – A professional photographer will be taking team and individual pictures. These pictures are optional. However, we do ask that all team members attend the photo date in order to have a complete team picture. The scheduled Fall Sports picture date is September 26, 2011. The times will be distributed by the coaches as well as in the school newsletter, parish bulletin and posted on the Junior CYO website.
Tournaments – Any CYO team that wishes to play in a tournament may do so but registration fees must be covered by the attending team. Prior to a tournament commitment, the coach must be given permission by the Athletic Director.
