We are excited for our 2022-2023 basketball season.  We thank everyone for your ongoing support and look forward to having a successful season!

St. Charles Borromeo Parish School participates in the Burlington County Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) Basketball League, competing with other schools and parishes in the area for 3rd through 8th grade, with a developmental clinic for 2nd graders.  To participate, students must be attending St. Charles Borromeo School OR attending the St. Charles Borromeo Religious Education Program.  We follow the philosophy and guidelines set forth by CYO, as well as those of our parish and school.  The CYO Basketball program exists to continue the student's educational learning in the area of healthy competition, teamwork, healthy physical skills and habits, and striving to be the best one can be.

We also have a CYO High School Boys' League for high school boys that do not play on their high school team.  Practices for this team will start the Monday after Thanksgiving.  Please reach out to Angie at [email protected] if you are interested in playing on this team. 

For 3rd through 8th grade, there are player evaluations to make up the teams, and every effort is made to ensure that everyone has a team on which to play.  Check out the full evaluation schedule.  Team and coach information will be released in October following the evaluations at the end of September.  Practices will start mid-October (based on coaches' availability).  Teams will practice up to 2 days a week Monday through Friday sometime between 5:30 - 9PM.  Practice schedules will be created based upon the coaches’ availability and gym availability once teams are formed.  Practices will be held at either St. Charles, Holy Cross Academy, or one of the schools in the Cinnaminson area.

For 3rd through 8th grade, regular season games will start the first weekend in December and run until the end of February.  Home games will be held on Friday evenings, Saturday afternoons, or Sunday afternoons at either St. Charles or Holy Cross Academy or another school in the Cinnaminson area.  Away games can vary based on the teams being played and their gym availability.  There will be a break for games over the Christmas holiday from approximately Christmas Eve until New Year's Day.  Playoffs will be approximately the last 2 weekends in February.

For the 2nd grade clinic, there will be up to 2 practice days per week at either St. Charles or Holy Cross Academy.  The practice days will be determined once we identify coaches and their availability, sometime around mid-October.  The commitment is pretty flexible - kids can make practices as their schedule allows.  Practices will start at the beginning of November and run through until the end of February.

Each program also has a participation fee that covers the CYO registration, referee and league fees, gym time, equipment, and miscellaneous expenses.  For 3rd through 8th graders, the fee per player is $100.  For the 2nd grade developmental clinic, the fee per player is $50.
