Winter Maverick Sports
Welcome to the 2024 Winter Basketball Season at St. Joseph
All athletes are required to have a doctor-signed MHSAA Physical form on file (Dated April 15,2024 or Later). Athletes will not be able to participate in winter sports if these items are not completed on time. You will receive a confirmation email for details of the next steps. If you’ve played a fall sport through SJS, you are all set with your physical, as you turned one in when you participated in the fall.
If you have additional questions, please contact our Athletic Director Daniel Durkin via the form on our faculty contact page or by phone at 248-693-6215.
To be eligible to participate in the Archdiocese of Detroit's Catholic Youth Organization athletic program, particpants should be Saint Joseph school students or parish members and neighboring parish participants who have been
baptized. In addition, parish members should:
Be registered in an approved Religious Education Program and maintain regular attendance. For those enrolled in the St. Joseph Religious Education Family Study program, attendance at scheduled meetings is required.
Submit a weekly grade report signed by the participant’s teacher(s) to maintain a "C-" or better grade average in each subject.
Please note: The St. Joseph Athletic Program does not make cuts. In order to have the policy work, we need coaches to handle the additional teams. Should we have too many players and not enough coaches, the priority will be given to students at St. Joseph School for participation.
