ST. WILLIAM CRUSADER BASKETBALL
St William Dads’ Club would like to extend an invitation to all young boys and girls to join the fun and excitement of the game of Basketball. Come and be a part of our continued tradition and success. Registration is open to all young boys and girls who will be in the 4th through 8th grade in the Fall.
The 2021/2022 season will obviously be unique with everyone dealing with Covid. For this season we will be following the guidelines set forth by MHSAA and CYO for operating basketball safely at St. William. Some key highlights before each game and practice include temperature checks, health questionnaire filled out, as well as, masks worn by everyone before, during, and after practice. We also will need help from all the parents on practice days with taking down and setting up the gym. This season we will only be having away games so more details to come on how this will be handled.
TEAMS/PLAYER REQUIREMENTS:
CYO allows Basketball programs to have two levels of teams both for boys and girls, Junior Varsity(JV)(5th-6th grade) and Varsity(7th-8th grade). St William offers boys and girls teams at these levels. Each player must be baptized catholic or attend a catholic school. Players from the surrounding area of St William Parish can be accepted to our teams. Those parishes include St William Walled Lake, Holy Family Novi, Prince of Peace West Bloomfield, St Mary’s Milford, St Thomas West Bloomfield, and Holy Spirit Highland. If you have a question or need clarification contact our athletic director at [email protected].

Scholarships are available for any family that is not in a position to pay the required fee(s). The St William Dads’ Club supports the scholarship through its fundraising activities. The Club wishes for each child to have the opportunity to participate in the St William Athletic programs and removes this financial barrier of the registration fee. To receive a scholarship, the family is requested to contact the Athletic Director or the Director of the athletic program in which the athlete wishes to be involved and let it be known that the athlete(s) request a scholarship. This is a very simple process to receive a scholarship, but it must be initiated by the family each time a scholarship is needed. Otherwise, all fees are expected to be paid.
