5th-8th Grade League

There are two different levels of play in CYO.

A Teams will be selected after the tryouts by the A team coach. A Teams typically have 3 practices per week and are entered in 2 or more tournaments during the season. The A team is competitive basketball. Making the A team is a commitment to attend all practices and games. At the Varsity level, this is the team that could compete in the Archdiocese playoffs.

B Teams are our parish level teams. B Teams typically have 2 or 3 practices per week and are entered in 1-2 tournaments during the season. The B team coaches do their best to divide the teams equally in terms of talent. While the Parish level can still be competitive, the goals are to develop skill, get playing time, and learn the game. 

3rd & 4th Grade League

The 3rd and 4th grade developmental league is separate from the CYO program. The goal at this level is to introduce structured basketball to the players and to have fun! Games are on Friday nights and the girls usually play at Notre Dame in Swarthmore and the boys usually play at Nativity in Media. There is one practice a week due to the limited amount of gym time available. There is no guarantee that we can have more than one team and the team size will be larger.

High School

High School CYO Basketball is open to any high school student parishioner that is not playing for their High School team.
