2003

• Proposal to Diocese of Raleigh for support and backing of a CYO-based athletic association.
• Diocese of Raleigh approved endeavor based on the following:

― The Diocese of Raleigh, parishes and schools would not be fiscally/legally responsible for Parish Athletics.

            ―  A "safe environment" policy must be adhered to.

― Athletic programs must enhance the vision of a comprehensive  Youth Ministry.
