We are pleased to announce the resumption of athletics activities at St. Francis.  To ensure the safety of everyone in our community, all of our activities will be conducted in strict compliance with the directives and guidelines set forth by Diocesan Catholic Schools Department, state and local public health authorities, the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) and the CIF Sac-Joaquin Section. As such, our seasons will look quite different in many ways than what we do in "normal" years, yet despite the challenges, we remain committed to providing safe spaces for our Troubies to gather to celebrate sisterhood in sport.

In order to participate, students must be registered for their sport on Final Forms, with all of the forms including the Pre-Participation Exam (current physical) completed and signed.  In addition, all students are required to test for COVID 19 on a weekly basis and present confirmation of a negative test on their Immunify app before each practice or team gathering.

Please refer to the following list regarding the start of our CIF "Season 1" sports.  All initial sessions will take place on the SFHS campus. Look for messaging from your head coaches via Final Forms for further details which will include exact start times for specific sub-groups within your sport and exact locations on campus:
