St. Veronica proudly participates in the Northern Virginia Junior Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) sports leagues, which are an important component of youth ministry in our parish.  CYO activities foster cooperation, respect, sportsmanship, responsibility, leadership, competitiveness, fairness and courtesy.  CYO Sports programs are open to students of St. Veronica Catholic School and/or students attending CCD at St. Veronica.
