Welcome to another exciting year for our after school sports program here at Our Lady of Fatima School. As usual our top priorities we will focus on having fun, participation for all, and good sportsmanship, ahead of winning. We usually have a participation rate of around 90% of our 5th through 8th graders playing at least one sport during the year. With our tremendous student athletes, and outstanding parent coaches, I would expect we will again have an outstanding turnout in the 2011-2012 school year.
Our Lady of Fatima School participates in an after school sports program called PAL (Parochial Athletic League). Our school plays against other parochial schools within the boundaries of the Diocese of Orange. During league games we play against other schools in South Orange County, and in the playoffs we may be traveling anywhere within the Diocese of Orange. Teams are divided into “A” teams (7th and 8th graders), and “B” teams (5th and 6th graders).
The fall sports season offers flag football for the boys and volleyball for the girls. Basketball for both boys and girls is played in the winter and boys volleyball and girls softball are played in the spring. There is also a PAL track meet held each spring. Coed soccer is also played in the spring but is run separately from the PAL League. Teams from only the south part of the county participate in the Soccer Friendship League.
I am looking forward to another wonderful and fun year in our sports program. Please see below for current schedule.
