Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish
Our diocese describes CYO Sports as:
“CYO Sports is for parishes that support comprehensive youth ministry and understand the importance of play. Through play, adolescents learn to compete, or strive together, for the sake of something greater than themselves. They learn that there is something more lasting than gamesmanship.
CYO Sports is for parents who value sports as an important way to help their child grow and develop into their God-given potential as human beings. In a small way, it helps move adolescents from gamesmanship to sportsmanship.
CYO Sports is for youth ministers, and virtuous Catholic coaches, who desire to evangelize through athletics. It provides the opportunity to usher adolescents from the gymnasium to the church and to introduce participants to Jesus Christ and His Gospel. It is moving beyond sportsmanship to discipleship.”
