Athletic Programs.

Our Philosophy and Requirements.

Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School subscribes to the philosophy that sports and team participation is a positive venue for building mature, well-rounded individuals. For this reason we actively participate in Catholic Youth Sports League.

All qualified students may participate on sports teams and in extra-curricular activities. Our Lady of Lourdes is committed to providing everyone with a fair chance to participate. Parents are encouraged to help their children understand that not everyone will be selected for the team of their choosing.

To participate in extra-curricular activities, a student must ordinarily maintain a C- (2.0) cumulative average, and maintain satisfactory conduct. Students not attaining a 2.0 GPA at the time of the Interim Report will be placed on Academic Probation and be ineligible for extra-curricular activities until said GPA reaches 2.0. Students deemed ineligible by the aforementioned requirements at the time of the report card will be ineligible until the time of the Interim report. Any student who receives a grade other than “S” on an interim report or a report card will not be permitted to participate in extra-curricular activities.

The administration has the right to waive this rule if a student with learning disabilities is working up to his/her potential but still not maintaining a “C-“ average or in other exceptional circumstances as determined by the school administration.

Activities include clubs, plays, meetings, athletic practices and games, contests, or any official Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School (OLL) event. Students must be present in all classes for the day to be permitted to participate in the above-mentioned activities.

Any student not picked up on time for an after-school activity held on the campus of Our Lady of Lourdes on Monday – Friday will be sent to the after-school care program for which the parents will be billed.

Note: When students are absent from school, they are ineligible to participate in extracurricular activities or official school functions on that day. Activities include clubs, plays, meetings, athletic practices, contests, or any official Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School (OLL) event. Students must be present in all classes for the day to be permitted to participate in the above-mentioned activities.

Registration.

OLL competes in the new Catholic Youth Sports League (CYS) for all athletic teams. We offer many programs for the students K-8. The web site below has all the information, yearly schedule and registration forms for each sport throughout the year. If interested in coaching you MUST be fingerprint cleared and have taken the concussion course to be allowed to help with a particular team.

Most teams practice 1-2 times per week after school for about 1-1.5 hours. Students are expected to be in good standing academically and with their conduct, to be eligible to participate.

Grade School teams will receive a league wide CYS shirt and shorts that are kept at home and used throughout the year. Middle School Teams receive school issued uniforms and they MUST be returned at the conclusion of the season.

We hope you and your student(s) have a great experience with the athletic teams each season and if you have any questions please contact me at fairbankm@ollmelbourne.org. To register, please click below.
