CYO Cross Country and Soccer Registration is Open!

New Summer Soccer & Cross-Country Conditioning Program

This summer, we will be offering a conditioning program to prepare for the fall soccer and cross-country seasons. This program is free and supported by your soccer and XC coaches. When registering for soccer or XC, please add this free, separate registration to your account. Coaches will reach out via email to all those registered.

We will be targeting 2 weeknights and 1 weekend day beginning in mid-July and extending through the start of practices. Early sessions will be on speed and endurance with later sessions mixing in soccer skills. The meetup point is to be determined but will likely be the Lower Woodland area. 

Cross Country Details

  • Registration
    • Grades K-8: Registration fee is $40.
    • PreK:  Registration fee is $0. PreK runners do not compete but are welcome at the Monday and Friday practices and the Pumpkin Run! PreK runners must still register.

  • Meets: Meets are currently expected to be on Sundays, mid-September through mid-October.
  • Jerseys: We are moving to a universal jersey for St. John/Al. If you currently have a purple shirt or a soccer jersey, you are set. If you would like to order a new jersey, look for the jersey offering in the registration process. Jerseys cost $30. All orders must be placed before August 15.
  • Competition: All are welcome in CYO XC! If you would rather come to practices and skip the meets, that’s fine – please register and come on out! All are welcome regardless of previous experience or speed.
  • Volunteers: We need all the help we can get – no previous volunteer experience or running experience is required! There will be a volunteer kickoff event in August and an open house for all signed-up runners. Please register early so we can get in touch before the season starts.

Please contact Coach James Bozsa or Coach Andrew Exnicios with questions.

Soccer Registration Details

  • Grades PreK-Kindergarten
  • Grades 1-8
    • Registration:  Registration is open, and space is limited. Late registrations cannot be guaranteed space on the team or a jersey. Registrations are due before the end of the school year.
    • Dates: Soccer starts in mid-August and runs through October. Games start shortly after Labor Day, usually on Saturdays.
    • Registration Fee: The registration fee is $110. Full and partial scholarships are always available. Please contact Brian Haid, stjohnad@st-johnschool.org, for a scholarship request. 
    • Grade Level: Be sure to register for your grade level for the 2024-25 school year.
    • Jerseys: If you do not have a jersey, you will have the option to add a universal jersey during registration. The cost of a jersey is $30. This is a separate program offering, which is different from the jersey questions as part of the soccer program registration.
    • Volunteers: We have several hundred players in St. Al/John CYO soccer. To accommodate these players, we need coaches and coaches’ helpers. Please consider volunteering for CYO sports; it is a fun way to earn your volunteer hours! You can register as a volunteer when you register your player for the season. There is no cost to volunteer. Be sure you are logged in with the email you want to use for coaching.
    • New this year: sign up for pre-season conditioning throughout the summer for 5th-8th graders. This requires a separate program registration but is no cost to join.

Please contact Soccer Coordinator Matt BonDurant with questions.
