Message From the Athletic Director
A warm welcome to the 2023-24 school year and STORM SPORTS.
As a “lifer” in the world of athletics as an athlete, coach and administrator; I fully understand the role that athletics plays in the culture of the school and the development of our students. I will assist in enhancing our students experience at KYHS through the vehicle of Storm Athletics.
I enter my sixth year as the Athletic Director at Katz Yeshiva High School of South Florida, and we have executed our plan to enhance our Athletic offerings. Our coaching staff has expanded and is dedicated, knowledgeable, and embraces the mission and values of the school. They understand the academic workload required by the students of both the Judaic and General Studies curriculum and will work with them to accommodate their academic and athletic needs.
We now offer 16 sports:
Fall: Girls Volleyball, Boys and Girls Cross Country, Boys Flag Football, Boys and Girls Golf.
Winter: Boys and Girls Varsity Soccer, JV Boys Soccer, Varsity Boys and Girls Basketball, and JV Boys Basketball.
Spring: Boys and Girls Tennis, Boys Baseball and Boys Volleyball.
The life lessons learned through athletics are ones that our students will never forget. I am committed to empowering all our student-athletes via their particular athletic arena and I am looking forward to another great school year.
