In 2015 the football programs at Sacred Heart and St. Bernadette were merged with the approval of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. In order to respect the two proud football traditions and parish identities, the Sacred Heart St. Bernadette Football Program (SHSB) was established.
The mission of the Sacred Heart St. Bernadette’s CYO Football Program is to provide eligible boys in grades 3-8 the opportunity to learn the game of football, while growing emotionally, spiritually, socially and physically. The coaches, families, pastors and CYO boards of both parishes are committed to helping these boys reach their full potential in life by emphasizing the virtues of sportsmanship, competition, scholarship, teamwork, faith, service, dedication and commitment. By partnering together it is our intention to provide a competitive and safe environment for every boy to become a warrior on the field and a gentleman off the field.
