Students in grades 5 – 12 are all encouraged to participate in the basketball, volleyball and other athletic programs offered through Catholic Youth Organization or CYO. The athletic competition gives each participant an opportunity to grow in character, ability and community while honoring oneself, as well as one’s family, teammates, officials and our church.

To sustain this focus, CYO endeavors to help young people be more Christ-like in the way they live. This occurs when the young person - not the athletic activity, is the main focus of what we do. Each participant, parent, coach, official and volunteer all work together to bring our Gospel vision and values to life in every aspect of CYO programs.

To learn more about CYO in the Diocese of Reno, please contact Karen Barreras, Superintendent of Catholic Schools at 775-326-9430.
