St. Jude’s Athletic Policy 
for Parish School and Religious Education Programs

All students are invited and encouraged to participate in the various sports sponsored by St. Jude’s. To be eligible for being on a team or trying out for a team, the following criteria must be met:
  1. The family must be a registered member of St. Jude the Apostle parish. 6145.2(b) Archdiocesan Policy. Reminder: Any children who are currently in grades 6, 7, and 8 who participated in interscholastic athletics for the previous parish/school last year are ineligible to play sports for the new parish/school for one year. 6145.2, #28
  2. The family must be a registered member of St. Jude the Apostle parish by August 1.
  3. Students in the Religious education program must attend regularly. This is defined by the parish as missing no more than one class per month during the school year and not just during the season of a particular sport. Regular attendance also includes being on time for class. Excessive tardiness will affect a student’s eligibility to participate in a sport(s). Eligibility based on tardiness will be determined by the Religious Education Director. If a student misses more than one class per month or is excessively tardy, he/she will be ineligible for the rest of that season or the upcoming season (which may take place the next school year. For example, if the season has ended and then the student misses classes which violate the policy, then that student will be ineligible next year.)
  4. NEW: Dual participation in the same sport is permitted. For example, a student-athlete on a parish-based team who attends a public school may now play on the parish team and the school team concurrently. A student-athlete may now play on a school/parish team and another team such as a select all-star, club, tournament, AAU or recreation league team at the same time during the season.
  5. A team’s entire competitive season must be completed before any member of that team may begin participation in another sport. This restriction applies to practices as well as games or matches. EXAMPLE: A player participating with the football or soccer team must complete the entire football or soccer season before participating in any practices, games, matches, scrimmages, etc. for another sport … such as basketball or volleyball.  6145.2(b) Archdiocesan policy
