Welcome to CYM Sports

The Office for Catholic Youth Ministry empowers parishes, schools, and ministries within the Catholic Diocese of Wilmington to serve the Church by equipping and accompanying young people and the adults who walk with them to have authentic encounters with Jesus Chris and become true missionary disciples of the Gospel in the world. We accomplish this mission by hosting dynamic spiritual events, facilitating leadership and formation opportunities for young people and adults, and promoting Christian Values through the CYM Sports program.

Serving the Catholic Diocese of Wilmington Community since 1935

We request your cooperation by supporting the participants and officials in a positive manner. 


Profanity, racial or sexist comments, or other intimidating actions directed at players, coaches, officials, and team representatives will not be tolerated and are grounds for removal from the site of competition. Also the possession or consumption of alcoholic beverages and tobacco products is prohibited."

Sportsmanship Prayer

"Heavenly Father, 


Thank You for the gifts You’ve given me. Help me to honor You with my body, my attitude, and my effort. 


Let me compete with integrity, give my best without pride, and respect my teammates, coaches and opponents alike. Keep me safe from harm, and remind me that victory isn’t just in winning, but in growing character, humility, and perseverance. 


Never catch me rejoicing in the adversity of others. If I know victory, allow me to be happy; If I am denied, keep me from envy. 


Whether I win or lose, may I glorify You in all I do. In Jesus’ name, Amen."
