Spring Sports

- Athletics

Per guidance of the MHSAA and CYO, the St. Joan of Arc Athletic Program plans on going forward with the Spring 2021 Athletic Season. Registration will be open from February 24, 2021- March 8, 2021. Information as follows:

Level	Grades	Sport	Start Date (Tentative)	Requirements (Due @ Start Date)	Fee
JV	4-6	Baseball Softball Track	Mon April 12	CYO Eligibility Physical Form Concussion Form	$205 $205 $175
Varsity	7-8	Baseball Softball Track	Mon April 12	CYO Eligibility Physical Form Concussion Form	$205 $205 $175

Due to Covid-19 we have decided to waive the past $150 Volunteer Fee. Any registrations after the March 8 (midnight) deadline will be charged a $100 late fee. If the season is cancelled for any reason we will offer prorated refunds- meaning if the season is cancelled half way through the year- we will refund half of the registration fee (this does not include the $100 late fee).
Players and coaches will be required wear masks at all times. Please understand that these rules could change throughout the season. When making any athletic decisions our thought process will focus on our primary goal of maintaining in person school, while finding creative ways to keep our athletes physically, mentally and emotionally active.
The spring dual participation rule will continue. Meaning SJA athletes are allowed to play for same sport summer teams for baseball and softball that coexists with the CYO season. We ask for transparent communication with your teams coach and that when game schedule conflicts arise that you attend the SJA game. The regular season is tenatively set to end before Memorial Day weekend.
All Physicals and Concussion forms that were filed for SJA athletes for 2019-2020 seasons are permissible for the 2020-2021 Athletic Seasons. Returning athletes will need to instead fill out a “Returning Physical Form” permission slip instead. Only Athletes who did not play SJA sports in the past academic year will need to provide a new Physical Form. Click below for forms you may need.

Description of Program/Levels:
The St. Joan of Arc Athletics Programs mission is to educate rules and strategies of the game, develop fundamental skills and promote hard working life skills while using Athletics as a gateway to help athletes become better individuals and Christians.

Level	Ideology	Eligibility
Instructional	Educate rules of the game. Equal (as possible) playing time. Create a fun/energetic environment.	This is not a CYO sanctioned sport, therefore there technically are no eligibility requirements.

SJA also allows athletes from other local parishes to participate as long as the parish they are coming from does not offer that sport and is approved by their home parishes AD. SJA also follows the MHSAA Limited Membership rule where athletes can play on other non CYO teams in season but cannot participate in more that 2 contests for that team.
