  • Fall & Spring Topics  - A yearly program on a particular scripture topic.



NORTHWEST CATHOLIC ATHLETICS

The grade school athletic program for St. Catherine Parish members is administrated by the tri-parish Northwest Catholic Athletic Association (NCAA). The association is staffed by volunteers from St. Catherine, St. Bernadette, and Our Lady of Good Hope parishes. The Northwest Catholic Athletic programs promote the growth and development of Catholic moral principles by emphasizing fun, teamwork, learning and self-satisfaction through the experience of competition.

There are 7 sports offered through the NCAA. These include:

Volleyball ( Girls grades 5-8 and Coed High School CYM)
Soccer (Coed grades K5-4, Coed Grades 5-8)

Basketball (Girls grades 5-8 and Boys grades 5-8)
Spring Softball (Girls grades 5-8)
Track (Coed grades 5-8)
Summer Softball (Coed grades 3-6)
Summer T-Ball (Coed grades K4-2)

Eligibility for all sports is in accordance with Milwaukee Archdioceses guidelines requiring all participants to either be attending one of the day school programs at the parish schools or be parish members and actively attending one of the Religious Education programs. Detailed information for participants is available through the school offices in the Northwest Catholic Athletic Handbook.

There are many opportunities for parish members interested in sharing their talents and time to assist with the various athletic teams or committees. There are approximately 50 teams involved in the seven sports each school year.  Volunteers are needed to staff concession stands, coach, assist coaches, coordinate a sport, or serve on the 18 member NCAA board. Those working with children need to attend a sexual abuse awareness training session as mandated by the Archdiocese.
