St. Jude CYO covers the athletic side of St. Jude Parish and St. Jude School. We offer a variety of sports for athletes to have fun and firmly implant the ideals of good sportsmanship while allowing participants, coaches, and parents to connect better with God through athletics. Below are the sports we offer and approximate timing for registrations during the year along with current costs. Once you register yourself or your child for a sport you will receive emails & updates from St. Jude CYO. All sports listed below are subject to interest level. If we don’t have enough athletes registered for a sport or at a certain grade level, we will not have that sport at St. Jude but will instead help those interested to play with other schools in the area. Athletes will need a physical within the last 13 months, as well as fill out the CYO preparticipation form. Coaches will need to be compliant with CYO regulations via the Coaches Development Program (CDP), Virtus, and recognized coaching standards. No athlete or coach will be able to participate without the proper paperwork:
