The St. Kilian Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) Sports program currently fields inter-community competitive teams for boys and girls in basketball, volleyball and swimming. All St. Kilian CYO teams compete against their counterparts from other parishes in both Nassau and Suffolk Counties.

The basketball program is comprised of over 25 boys and girls teams ranging in age from fourth grade development teams through high school, separated by individual grade levels. The basketball teams are separated into different divisions based on ability and competitive nature to facilitate an enjoyable learning environment.

The Basketball and Swimming programs have been active and serving the youth of the St. Kilian Parish for over 25 years.

The Boys and Girls Volleyball Programs range in age from 5th Grade through High School with boys teams being separated into Middle School and High School divisions.

St. Kilian's CYO, like all CYO programs, promotes sportsmanship, fair play, and provides these services in an inclusive and non-discriminatory manner respecting the culture and faith of all.

Prayer of the Sportsman

Dear Lord, in the battle that goes on through life,
I ask but a field that is fair,
A chance that is equal with all in the strife,
The courage to strive and to dare.
If I should win, let it be by the code, 
With my faith and my honor held high.
If I should lose, let me stand by the road 
And cheer as the winners go by.
