The DC 'Hood (as in priesthood) is a basketball team comprised of priests and seminarians of the Archdiocese of Washington who play against local high school teams at venues throughout the Archdiocese of Washington. These are wonderful events that promote vocations to the priesthood and religious life, and are great fun for the whole family. Come out and show your support for vocations!
