Frequently Asked Questions

Do we have to be members of a parish or be Catholic to participate?

No. Victory Sports is available for children of all faiths. We evangelize the Catholic faith and instruct using Catholic social teaching through learning how to play sports. In the registration platform, you can select the parish nearest you or use your address to find the parish nearest you.

Is a uniform included in the registration fee?

Uniform tops and bottoms are included as part of the registration fee. Socks are also included during soccer season and flag belts during football season.

How are teams assigned?

Athletes are assigned to teams based on their age/grade level, parish they attend or live next to, and are sorted based on skill to create the most evenly matched teams to promote healthy competition.

What are evaluations?

Prior to the start of each season, athletes attend a mandatory evaluation session where they participate in various skills related to the sport. This process is used to help sort players ensuring good competition and evenly matched teams.

When/Where are practices and games?

Practices are held at the parishes in Bryan and College Station. Game locations depend on the season/sport. Locations and schedule Information can be found under the Leagues tab of our website.

How to know if practices or games are cancelled?

You will be contacted by your child’s coach in regard to practice cancellations and the league will contact you about any potential game cancellations. Texts and emails will be used to communicate cancellations. The communications will be sent to the email and cell number you provide at registration.

How do you determine age requirements?

Within each sport, athletes will compete on teams within divisions: Pee Wee 1st-2nd grade, Minor 3rd-4th grade, or Major 5th-6th grade. Each division will have age and skill appropriate rules and procedures. Grade/Age requirements are determined by the athlete’s age as of June 1st.

How do I get involved?

Victory Sports thrives with volunteer help! If you are interested in coaching, refereeing, game day operations, scorekeeping, etc., please see the Volunteers tab of our website and submit your information.

Will my child need special equipment?

For player evaluations, children should wear athletic style shorts, t-shirt/last year’s jersey, socks and sneakers. Please send a water bottle with your child.

For volleyball season, each athlete will also need her own pair of knee pads for the season. The kneepads with padding that wraps around the sides of the knees are preferable to the type where the cushion is primarily in the front in a bubble-like fashion. Academy has some for purchase and we find that the Nike or Mizuno knee pads are good.

Soccer athletes must have a pair of shin guards to be allowed to participate in practices and games.

During football and soccer season, athletes should wear well griping tennis shoes or cleats.
