Catholic Charities Corporation Administrative Offices:
7911 Detroit AvenueThe CYO Hall of Fame honors individuals who have made significant contributions over an extended period of time to CYO while demonstrating our mission and values in action.
The CYO staff have decided not to hold the Hall of Fame & Recognition Awards Ceremony in January 2022 due to the continuing pandemic. As we reflect on this wonderful event with all the Inductees, Recognition Awardees, and their families, we are reminded of the beautiful experience of having this award ceremony in person.
We continue to pray for the safety of all of our families. We look forward to the day when we can be together with all award winners and their families again in 2023. We will open the nominations link for the class of 2023 soon.
Those enshrined in the Diocese of Cleveland CYO Hall of Fame includes players, coaches, athletic directors, clergy, commissioners and other members of the greater CYO community. Their accomplishments have been of utmost merit and their actions have brought life to the mission of the Diocese of Cleveland CYO for an extended period of time. CYO Hall of Fame members are recognized for their contributions for building the CYO legacy.
