Students are encouraged to participate in sports activities as a
natural extension of the school's physical education program. Our
school participates in the Lansing Area Catholic School's Basketball
League. All students in grades five and six are eligible to
participate. Girls' basketball is in the fall, and the boys' season
is in the winter. This is a unique opportunity to learn the sport, as
all students who wish to play, regardless of their skill level, are
welcomed onto a team. There is a no-cut policy, and all players are
guaranteed playing time each game. The teams are coached by parent
volunteers and anyone wishing to help should contact the school office or
the athletic director. Parents are also asked to assist with
concessions, set-up, and clean up at home games.
It is required that students maintain academic eligibility during
the basketball season. Students are expected to continue to complete
assignments, sustain academic achievement consistent with their ability, and
uphold a code of discipline which exemplifies good Christian
behavior. Teachers will report eligibility status of students to the
principal on a regular basis during basketball season.
Students are also encouraged to participate in sports offered through
the city leagues which provide a wide variety of programs including soccer,
baseball, football, and basketball.
