st. mark athletics
I hope everyone is having a great summer and is ready to sign up for 2018 Fall sports!!!
There are some new features this year, such as being able to input your child's uniform size, the cost of the sport will be listed and ( in a week or so) you will be able to pay ONLINE! The ability to pay online will be done with E Checks only at this time. We will not be taking credit cards for the simple reason of keeping our cost as low as possible. If you do not wish to pay online you may still send in checks to the school as in years past. Sign-ups are still through www.cyoarchindy.org.
You will also be shown all CYO info such as physical forms, concussion forms and protocols and so on. Please take a minute to look at these, print off the ones your child will need, fill them out and turn into school. Physicals are good for 1 year from the date they were given.Football- If you are in 3rd-8th grade and want to play tackle football you will need to sign up online but not under St.Mark. We team up with Holy Name for this sport. The code for football is 158HN-IN. You can also reach out to Jamine Wenke the AD for Holy Name at jwernke@holyname.cc or Andy Swiezy, SMAC pres and Mr. Football here at St.Mark andyswiezy83@gmail.com. I am not sure the fees for this sport. Flag football- The St. Mark Athletic Committee is accepting flag football registration for 2018. Boys and girls entering grades K-2 are
eligible to play and the registration fee is $60.00. This season we are using a web-based registration process. All information and fees will be collected at our new website located at http://tshq.bluesombrero.com/southsideflagfb. Registration deadline is August 10th, practices will begin on August 13th, and the first games scheduled for August 25th. The season ends on September 29th. Practices are normally once per week and are scheduled by the coaches. Games are held on Saturday mornings at St. Mark. For more information, contact Patrick Collier at collierfamily8@att.net.Kickball and Cross Country are done at www.cyoarchindy.org
The deadline for these sports are July 20th no exceptions! CYO has made it very clear that if your school adds or drops a team after the deadline you school will be fined.
So in order to keep fees low and teams with a good number of players this will be strictly in forced. The best way to help us out is to sign up on time. If you sign up and pay online and we can not field a team we will have the option of a refund or a credit will be added to your account. If however you decide to quit the team after the deadline or you get suspended due to grades you will not be given a refund and will still be expected to pay. -
