CYO Athletics 
Rooted in our mission and values, the Coaches Development Program is an informational and educational leadership training program for CYO coaches.
Once an adult accepts the responsibility to coach in CYO Athletics, they also accept the responsibility to maintain a standard for excellence. Every coach, both head and assistant, must attend the Coaches Development Program (CDP) before they begin coaching.
The program includes interactive sessions on the following topics:
2025 Spring Coaches Development Program Training Sessions are open for registration. New Coaches will register for one of these dates to get certified to coach CYO!
