FOOTBALL INFORMATION
Grades 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th
For all future students and parents,
Football has merged into the West Side Graceac Catholic United League. St. Anthony, along with other schools, will make up the West side and be placed in the Northern Rocket league. Players will be split up into teams based on weight, age and years of experience. Players that sign up to play football will attend a practice session and then be put into a draft format. Names of the teams will be chosen at a later date. Graceac will
have a West Side football team and an East Side football team.
The West Side team will be directed under the leadership of Joe Hyland, West Catholic head football coach, and the East Side team under Todd Kolster, Catholic Central head football coach.
Graceac will be hosting a West Side and an East Side mandatory parent meeting. This meeting will explain the process and details to parents. This is not a meeting to discuss likes and dislikes, but a meeting that explains the vision, and what you, as parents and players, need to do. Dates and place to be determined soon. Sports physicals will continue to go through the elementary school in which the student attends.
For further information, please contact Rosemary Sweedyk at
rsweedyk@saparish.com
