Please see Eligibility Requirements Below:

OLV Student Athlete Eligibility & Parish School of Religion To participate in athletics, students must be enrolled in Our Lady of Victory School or Our Lady of Victory's PSR Program. A few requirements for PSR: Families must be registered with the parish and be Catholic. Students must be baptized Catholics. (If they are not baptized Catholics, then they cannot attend PSR, and thus they cannot play sports for Our Lady of Victory.) Students attending PSR cannot miss more than 4 days to receive credit for the year. If students stop coming to class after the sports season is over, they are not eligible to play for Our Lady of Victory the following year in any sport. If your sport is combined with another school to make a team, students must be registered at their parish to be eligible. The Parish Office is calling other parishes to check that they are registered members. The only way that a student who is not Catholic (not baptized) can play sports for Our Lady of Victory is if they are attending our school as a private student. All Our Lady of Victory athletic teams must release students attending Parish School of Religion (PSR) class by 6:30 p.m. on Mondays from practices to attend class at 6:45 p.m. Students cannot be penalized by restricting playing time during games. Attendance is taken at PSR and if students do not attend class, they are not eligible to play. If you have questions about the PSR class or its enforcement, please contact the Office of Religious Education at (513) 347-2071.
