Liability Waivers
In order for your child to participate in the GCCYS, ALL parents/guardians must fill out a Liability Waiver form for each of their children playing in our league once per school year. We try to help out our coordinators by matching up waivers with roster entries so please double check the spelling of your child's last name, verify date of birth, and make sure you choose the correct organization. Parents may begin filling out Liability Waivers for the 2024-25 school year on June 1st.

League Tournament
For the 2024-25 season, the tournament for all grades will take place from February 12th-16th.
The Sunday of tournament weekend is reserved for championship games only. We will work around parish conflicts as best as we can but there is very limited time available for this tournament to be played. All teams participate in the tournament unless they notify the league by January 20th. In order to seed teams with as much regular season data as possible, the schedule for the tournament will be released on the Monday of tournament week. A team trophy is given to the 1st and 2nd place team in each bracket. Boys championship games for 6th-8th grades are usually played at area high schools such as Moeller, McNicholas, St. Xavier, Purcell-Marian, and Roger Bacon.
