St. Joseph Athletic Association takes safety very seriously. We have multiple AED equipment at our facilities with 1 in the foyer outside the St. Joseph gym and 2 at Wiles Field (1 in the concession stand and 1 mobile unit to bring to fields as necessary). In case of injury, ice packs are available.
Sportmanship
All athletes, coaches, and spectators must adhere to good sportsmanship. Parents, please review and follow the CYC Parent Code of Conduct. Coaches, please review and follow the CYC Coach Code of Conduct. When you attend a CYC game, please remember you are representing your family, your team, and your parish community. Most importantly, you are modeling the proper behavior for your child. Kids see everything you do at their games. They need your encouragement and support. When they make a mistake, they look to you for support. Please don’t shake your head or criticize their actions. Be positive at the game and don’t forget to tell your kids you love to watch them play. Additionally, no heckling or remarks to officials will be tolerated. There is zero tolerance towards bad behavior to officials by all in attendance. Spectators or coaches’ bad behavior could impact your student athlete’s opportunity to play.
