St. Patrick’s Athletic Association
The Athletic Association members would like to you to stop by at one of our meetings, and also to consider joining our group. Meetings are held on the first Sunday of the month at 6:30 p.m. in the Parish Hall. Meetings usually last about an hour.
Membership is open to all St. Patrick parishioners over the age of 18. Active members who attend eight meetings a year receive a complimentary season pass which allows them and their immediate family to attend all home games free of charge.
We encourage you to stop in at a meeting or two to see how things are done. Hopefully, you’ll decide to keep coming back!
If you have students in middle or high school, you’ll find that’s the perfect time to get involved. You’ll be a better supporter and advocate if you see what goes on “behind the scenes.”

Gate & Concession Worker Info
Since the income from gates and concessions is such a big part of the athletic budget, parents of athletes are expected to work two times during most sports seasons. Sign up sheets will normally be available at the first home game.
Mission Statement
St. Patrick’s Athletic Association is committed to providing St. Patrick’s Parish and School with financial support to afford our students the opportunity to participate in a school athletic program. In support of this, we will provide high quality coaches, uniforms, equipment and facilities.

About Us
The Athletic Association was formed in 1951 when St. Patrick High School opened its doors. The organization’s original duty was to raise the money necessary to operate the Shamrock athletic program, and its members have never veered from that goal. Currently the athletic budget runs over $250,000 per year, and every penny of it is raised by this group. Other than the Father Flohe Foundation, the Athletic Association is the largest revenue-generating group in the parish.
The income for the athletic program comes from these sources:
- The Shamrock Mega Raffle
- Gate/Door Income at games
- Sale of concessions at game
