New sports registration web site
The CYC has directed all parish organizations to begin using a new registration system - Team Sideline. We will no longer be using Sports Sign Up and Play. All parents and coaches must create a new account on Team Sideline. Once your account is created you will be able to register your children for sports and/or register to volunteer to coach or manage.

Track and Field for 2021 is Cancelled
On Friday, we were notified by CYC that Track & Field is canceled again this year. "We (CYC) have made the decision that we will not offer CYC Track meets this season. Our meets typically involve over 1,000 people between athletes, spectators, volunteers, and coaches. We do not feel we can reduce the number of those involved and still be able to provide a safe environment in which to compete." These decisions are surely not easy to make and while understandable it's still disappointing because our Track & Field program had returned so strong in 2019...and then we had more than doubled the number of 2019 registrants in 2020 to over 60 before COVID arrived and canceled the season. We'll now look forward to 2022!
