SSports Programports Program

St. Joe's "no-cut" sports program offers students in fifth through eighth grades the opportunity to learn sports, build friendships, learn team and leadership skills and most of all, have fun. There are also sports instructional programs for younger students.

Athletic & Booster Committee [A&B]

The Athletic and Booster committee is responsible for St. Joseph's interscholastic athletic program for Grades 5-8. We have a "no cut" policy, so it is not unusual to have three teams for one grade for one gender. Consult the A&B Handbook [PDF] for additional information such as goals, gym etiquette, minimum playing time, fees, and parent expectations. During the Fall and Winter seasons, a "scoreboard" records team rosters, schedules, and game scores.

What are the volunteer opportunities?

Coaching and being a committee member are the obvious volunteer opportunities. But the fund raising activities provide even more opportunities to help. In fact, each parent is expected to work at least one of the following events or to include an additional $50 "non-volunteer" fee with their annual registration.

Parish Block Party (Aug.)
Homecoming Committee (Sept.)
St. Patrick's Dance (March)
