As part of the St. Joseph Parish community, St. Joseph School, is an active participant in the Office of Youth and Young Adults (OYYA) of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. St. Joseph’s CYO offers a number of athletic programs designed to both challenge our young people physically and teach important life lessons such as teamwork, discipline and sportsmanship. The programs are open to student parishioners attending St. Joseph School, private, public or home-based schools. Players must be St Joe's parishioners. The programs are strengthened by committed and qualified volunteers. Teams are open to all interested in participating – from the beginner to the most experienced. All are encouraged to participate!
Teams and all Sports will always depend on the number of participants and coach volunteers!
CYO Sports is one component of the parish’s comprehensive youth ministry program which enables the partnership of parents, coaches, priests, religious, teachers, and adult leaders to manage and support a sports program that allows youth to grow in their relationship with God and come to better understand themselves and the Catholic Faith.
The St. Joseph Catholic Youth Organization is a school-based program which provides opportunities for youth to grow in faith and understanding of their church through involvement of athletic endeavors. Through a total youth ministry concept incorporating intellectual, physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of the student, the program strives to enhance the total Christian education experience.
Through the management by highly motivated, volunteer, adult leaders, students achieve life-long Christian characteristics of leadership, team play, self-motivation, determination, integrity, and dealing graciously in both victory and defeat. This is achieved through competition with other schools within the Catholic Youth Organization (CYO), for grades fifth through eighth, in structured, supervised sporting events enabling maximum individual and team potential.
Our mission is to:
In keeping with the CYO Mission, each participant is encouraged to donate their time to service projects and to attend a team mass each session.
