Football and girls volleyball start up this week through the Catholic Youth Athletic Association. These file photos (featuring St. Matthew, St. Vincent de Paul, St. Gregory and Christ the King) are from the 2011 championship tournaments.

Many games through the Catholic Youth Athletic Association begin today. May St. Sebastian, the patron saint of athletes, watch over the football and volleyball players. Keep them safe from injury.

Keep us posted of records, standout teams (on basis of athletic ability, character, school tradition, family tradition, etc.) and any other story ideas you may have: schoolnews@catholicsun.org.
