Athletics

Due to an increase in local COVID-19 cases, and concern from health officials about spread, especially with people spending more time indoors, and families coming together for holidays, the Diocesan Basketball League will begin all interscholastic competition in January 2021.

For now, practice is permitted, contingent upon local, state, and/or federal mandates, but must be suspended during Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks.

All practices must be in-house and include team members only.  Emphasis needs to be placed on drills, skills, and activities that permit masking.  No interscholastic scrimmages and/or games, including tournament participation, is permitted until January.  It is extremely important that we follow these directives closely while strictly adhering to every local, state, and federal guideline.  

It’s imperative that we operate above reproach in order to keep our students and all those who serve them safe, loved, and learning.  As always, our children must see us living out the ways we want them to live and our eyes must be fixed on Jesus Christ in order to do that.

Most sports at Archangel Gabriel are offered at all levels, beginning with instructional teams in the primary grades and continuing with separate boys' and girls' developmental, junior varsity, and varsity teams.

We host large fundraisers throughout the year such as the boy’s basketball summer league and a cheerleading competition. Other fundraising will be done through admissions, concessions and 50/50 ticket sales. The Athletic Association holds organizational meetings monthly during the school year.

Current sports and athletic activities available to students at Archangel Gabriel include:

• Basketball - Grades 2-8
• Volleyball - Grades 5-8
• Soccer - Grades 1-8
• Cross Country - Grades 4-8
• Track - Grades 3-8
• Cheerleading/Pep Squad  - Grades 1-8

All sports programs are the responsibility of the Principal. The President of the Athletic Association is accountable to the Principal. Coaches are selected by the Athletic Association, approved by the Principal and serve on a volunteer basis. The Diocesan Guidelines for Elementary Catholic School Sports Programs guide the policies. Bylaws of the Athletic Association, and necessary forms can be found at the bottom of this page.
