Athletic Boosters

Thank you for showing an interest in CYO sports at St. Columbkille. Throughout the year, the sports listed below are available for all school, parish, and neighborhood students. St. Columbkille will usually field a full team, but if that isn’t possible, the Athletic Director will work with coaches and surrounding area ADs to make sure each student is placed on a team. During each season, the Athletic Boosters organizes a Sunday Mass / Donut social as well as pep rallies inside the school. 

Join us for monthly Athletic Booster Meetings at 7:30pm in Parish Center the third Wednesday of the month: September 18, October 16, November 20, December 18, January 22, February 19, March 19, and April 16.

The Athletic Boosters is a volunteer organization, relying on parent and community volunteers. All ideas and talents are welcome and if interested about positions or running for a position, please contact us and /or attend one of the upcoming monthly meetings. Volunteer positions include (but not limited to): Athletic Director, President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Equipment Manager, Gym Scheduler, Knight at the Races/Fundraising Chair, Concession Stand Manager, Site Director, and Sports Commissioners. Booster Board Nominations usually occur at the end of the school year around February – April during Athletic Booster General Meetings.

The students also rely on volunteers to be their Coaches and Assistant Coaches.

If you are interested in volunteering to coach, please reach out to us as this needs to be arranged before a given sports season begins. You do not need to be a parent to coach; community volunteers are welcome! There are easy to fulfill requirements needed for coaching:

1)  VIRTUS Training

2)  Background Check

3)  CYO Coaches Development Program.

Under Important Links below you will find detailed information by clicking on “Requirements to Coach”.

Cost for playing is based on CYO costs and participation fees will vary by sport.

The Athletic Boosters organizes Knight at the Races each year to help cover additional costs like uniforms, tournament fees, gym rental fees, sports equipment, and celebrations/recognitions. Knight at the Races takes place at the beginning of November and is a great (k)night out! It’s also a fun event to work or help plan (hint hint). We hope to see you there!

Athletic Booster Meetings are the 3rd Wednesday of the month.

Topics include current and upcoming CYO sports seasons and planning for this, along with general topics regarding the athletic programs at St. Columbkille. If you would like to be added to our email list, please email the Booster President at scsathleticpresident@gmail.com.
