Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) Cross Country Virtual Season
This year St. Louise Parish will have a virtual CYO Cross Country season.  Because it is virtual, there will be no in-person practices or meets.  The coach will email out warm up and stretching ideas along with different running course options.  The participation will rely heavily on members of each household to support our young athletes to run distances on their own, and send their times to their coach.  All times will be posted on Athletic.net each week.  This is open to any Kinder-8th grader that is a member of St. Louise Parish.

To Register:   https://www.stlouise.org/cyo-sports  (Registration is free but if you would like a CYO Cross Country t-shirt the cost is $15.)
