Sports

 

St. Catherine's Montessori is dedicated to giving each student an opportunity to develop as an athlete and as a person. It is our goal to help each student reach their maximum potential which teaching them to realize the significance of commitment, competition, loyalty, teamwork, and worth ethic. We expect each student to be a respectable representative of themselves, their team, and their school.

 

 

St. Catherine's students are eligible to participate in after-school sports beginning their 4th year. 

 

 

The after-school sports program is committed to building an athletics tradition that provides opportunities for students of all skill levels to enjoy the excitement, community and physical development of sports. Athletes make a commitment to themselves and their teammates when they join a team. This commitment includes always working hard, being a good teammate, and attending all team practices and games.

 

A variety of after-school sports are offered for St. Catherine's students throughout the school year. These activities are offered for students in grades 4-12. We are committed to building an athletics tradition that provides opportunities for students of all skill levels to enjoy the excitement, community, and physical development of sports.

 

 

• Volleyball (August 22 – October 29) 
• Soccer (August 22 - October 29)
• Basketball (November 3 – January 28)
• Baseball (February 6 – April 14)
• Track and Field (February 13 – April 22)

 

Each sport will be available for both boys and girls. The number of registrants per sport will determine whether there will be a boys' team and a girls' team, or one co-ed team. 

 

 

SCM will have a Varsity team compete in all after-school sports offered. We will compete in the Greater Houston Catholic Athletics Association (GHCAA). Varsity games will be played on Monday - Thursday during seasons. Each sport will have home and road games.

 

 

JV team will consist of 4-6th year students. These teams will have the opportunity to compete against schools in a scrimmage format. These games will be scheduled as the seasons progress. 

 

 

Students will play in intramural games throughout the year (competing in-house against their SCM classmates). This format will allow all students to participate in a healthy competitive environment but, more importantly, have fun with their friends when they are doing so.

 

 

Upper Elementary students will have their sports practice after school on Mondays and Wednesdays until 5:00 p.m. 

Adolescent Community and High School students will have their sports practice after school on Tuesdays and Thursdays until 5:00 p.m.

 

House Competition

 

At the end of the school year we will have a field day for 4-12th years where we will split the school into four houses and compete at various field sports in house.

Additionally, at the end of the school year the 7-12th year students will be invited to compete against a employee-assembled team in various sports. 

 

 

Sports registration forms for 2022-2023 are available on FACTS Family Portal under Resource Documents.

 

You may register your child for their chosen sport(s) all at once, or one-at-a-time. Registration for each sport will close at the end of the first week of practice. (See registration form for individual sport deadlines.) 

 

All participating students must have a valid Pre-Participation Physical Examination form on file with the school at the time of registration. The first registration deadline (volleyball/soccer) is Tuesday, August 30. If you already completed and returned the Pre-Participation Physical Examination form earlier this summer as part of the Required Forms process, you do not need to submit the form again.
