There are two levels of play for our student-athletes competing in a PAROCHIAL ATHLETIC LEAGUE

  • A-Level (Varsity): 7th and 8th Playing time is not guaranteed to student-athletes and instead is earned through practice, effort, and play in games. This is a competitive level. Teams qualify for playoffs finishing with a record of .500 or better. In the sports season, these games/matches are played at 3:30/4:30 pm depending on the opponent and there will be days that student-athletes are dismissed from class early to get to a game.  Student-athletes must be able to support at least a 2.0-grade point average to be eligible to be a student-athlete for Our Lady Queen of Angels School. Anything below a 2.0-grade average will deem any student-athlete academically ineligible to participate. Along with the grade point average, the student-athlete must be in good standing with campus citizenship and conduct.

  • B-Level (Junior Varsity): 5th and 6th This is a developmental level in which all student-athletes will get an opportunity to play. This is still a competitive level and playing time will differ between student-athletes. There are no playoffs at the B Team Level. In the sports season, these games/matches are played at 3:30/4:40 pm depending on the opponent and there will be days that student-athletes are dismissed from class early to get to a game. There are NO PLAYOFFS at the B Level! Student-athletes must be able to support at least a 2.0-grade point average to be eligible to be a student-athlete for Our Lady Queen of Angels School. Anything below a 2.0-grade average will deem any student-athlete academically ineligible to participate. Along with the grade point average, the student-athlete must be in good standing with campus citizenship and conduct.

  • Athletes at both the A & B levels must be in attendance for more than half the school day to participate in practice or a game/match. Some exceptions are 8th-grade high school shadowing and field trips.
