and a uniform deposit will be collected.

All children participating in CYO activities must also sign up online at www.cyojwa.org. Select the link “Click Here for CYO Online Registration” and enter the appropriate information. If your child has already completed online registration for football or volleyball, he/she does NOT have to register online again for basketball. However, all participants must sign the hard copy Prince of Peace registration forms available at http://www.popsports.org. The CYO online registration is $20 and is payable via credit card.

Therefore, basketball fees for 2009-2010 are $110 for one child; $200 for two children; $280 for three children. A $40 deposit per uniform is required via a separate check that will be returned when uniforms are returned at the end of the year.
