Youth Soccer

Season starts in the end of August/beginning of September and runs through mid-December.
Youth teams are formed through your local Catholic parishes; for information on how to get on a team:

If you are Catholic, contact the parish you are registered in,
If you are non-Catholic, contact the Catholic parish whose boundaries you live within.

If the parish that you are registered in, or that you reside in is unable to, or does not participate in the CYC program, please contact the District that your parish is in or contact our office (314-353-8911) for further information on placement of players on teams that are participating in the Archdiocesan program.

All players need an official CYC ID Card to participate in the program. You can apply for your card on line.
You can find the upcoming sessions by going to the link above.

All coaches/volunteers must have completed the Archdiocese's Protecting God's Children Workshop, which is coordinated by Safe Environment Program, as well as have a Missouri Background check done every 2 years, and have read, signed and returned to your parish the Code of Ethical Conduct, These are Archdiocesan requirements that the Catholic Youth Council fully supports. You should contact your parish for details about these requirements and/or copies of the forms.

All Head Coaches/Managers in the CYC-Sports program also need to have attended the CYC Coaches Training program, "Coaching to Make a Positive Difference", This two hour class needs to be completed prior to the start of your season, and all coaches completing the program will receive a "Coaching Card" containing their official coaching number. All other coaches need to have a CYC Photo ID Card.
