REGISTRATION CLOSES ON June 2nd, so sign up now.
The link to registration is below. When registering, please remember to update the student athlete's grade to their current grade on the Student Information part of the registration, if necessary. Also, select the Parish field if not already entered. A current physical, conducted within 13 months of August 1, 2024, is required to participate.
If you are interested in tackle football, please register. There is no cost to register for grades 6 - 8. If you are interested in CYO football (grades 6, 7, 8), we can assist in placing your student athlete on a team. For Grade 6, we will determine if we will determine if we have enough players for a team. For Grade 5, we will have a St. Angela CYO Team. If you have further questions, please contact Sports Boosters at sportsboosters@samparish.org.
Practices and evaluations will start around July 25th. Players and runners will not be able to participate in any practices and/or evaluations until a physical is on file.
Volleyball teams are split evenly in 3rd, 4th and 5th grade. Teams are split by strength in 6th, 7th and 8th grade. Evaluations will take place around the last week of July, so please plan accordingly.
Registration after June 2nd will result in the student athlete being put on a waiting list and does not guarantee a spot on theteam.
