2009 Baseball and Softball Playoffs

Through out the city and county CYC baseball and softball teams have been competing in their leagues.  The teams that finish at the top of their leagues advance to district playoffs.  Then the teams that finish at the top of their districts will compete in the Archdiocesan Playoffs.  The Archdiocesan Playoffs bring together the top teams in their divisions (from 5th grade through seniors in high school) from all six districts to compete for the championship. 

This year the playoffs for both baseball and softball were held July 25th through August 2nd.  To view the baseball results and playoff brackets go Baseball under Sports on the menu bar, or click here.  Softball results can be viewed by going to Softball under Sports on the menu bar, or click here

The baseball playoffs were hosted by the St. Charles District and the softball playoffs by the St Louis City District.  We thank both those districts and all their volunteers that made the playoffs an enjoyable and memorable experience for the players, coaches and their fans.

A gallery of 2009 Archdiocesan Softball images can be seen in the Image Gallery,  2009 under Events on the menu bar, or click here.                                                

   

2009 Baseball and Softball Spirit Games

The 2009 Baseball and Softball Spirit Games were held Saturday July 11th, and hosted by the West County District.   Each district forms a Spirit team comprised of players from different parishes playing that sport at their parish.  Each Spirit team played two games on Saturday.  Baseball games were played at St Monica starting at 8:30am with the final game scheduled for 8:15pm.  The softball games were played at St Richard from the first game at 8:45am to the last scheduled for 6:15pm.  These games offer players from all parts of the city and county a chance to compete against each other in a non-playoff setting. 

Congratulations to all the players selected to represent their parishes and their districts at these game.  We also want to thank the West County district for hosting these games.  For more information go to the Baseball and Softball webpages under Spirit Games.  Click on one of these two galleries to see more photos, either 2009 Softball Spirit Games or 2009 Baseball Spirit Games.
