CYO Tournaments

• Tournament Play in CYO is a fun way for your CYO basketball team or girls' CYO volleyball team to play other teams from around the diocese, during times set aside for tournament play. 
• CYO-Sanctioned  Tournaments are sponsored by our Catholic parishes, Catholic schools and Catholic high schools. Only CYO teams may participate in CYO sanctioned tournaments. Only CYO sanctioned tournaments are listed on this page. Want to sponsor a tournament?  See tournament registration form, below.
