Catholic Youth Organization
CYO programs seek to help young men and women foster strong principles of teamwork and sportsmanship both on and off the field, all while developing their physical talents, learning to play fairly and enthusiastically, and appreciating Christ’s presence in their opponents. Through programs and training linked to parish life, CYO offers young people, coaches and their families another opportunity to work together in communion, showing the world a new vision of “competition” in sports.
Archdiocese of WashingtonCOVID UPDATE
It is with sadness to inform you that the 2020 Fall Soccer and Cross Country season has been cancelled. We were informed of such decision during a conference call with the CYO representatives at the Archdiocese of Washington. The ADW is looking into alternative sports activities for late Fall. I will provide you with any information on that front. No decision has been made yet on Winter Basketball.We know these are trying times for you and your children. We will be looking into ways that BS CYO can engage the kids this fall with competition and sport, albeit virtually. I welcome any ideas.Let’s continue to pray for the heath and safety of all of those in our parishcommunity.Please email me if you have an questions or ideas at maryseidel@blessedsacramentdc.org.
