⛳ JOIN US FOR THE BERKELEY ATHLETIC FUND GOLF CLASSIC! 🏌️

18th Annual BAF Golf Classic + Dinner

Game On: a day of fun + making a difference →
The Berkeley Athletic Fund (BAF) is proud to host its 18th Annual Golf & Cornhole Classic at the gorgeous Tilden Park Golf Course. This event, bringing together friends, colleagues, BHS families, student-athletes, and our amazing coaches, is more than just a day of competition; it is a powerful opportunity to support and uplift our community’s young athletes.

Berkeley High has 50+ teams and over 1,400 student-athletes - yet critical gaps remain.

Coaches’ stipends have remained flat for years despite dramatic increases in cost of living. We are working to close that gap and better support the adults who mentor and lead our athletes.
Teams regularly face funding shortfalls for essential equipment and uniforms - from starter blocks and hurdles to safety gear and updated uniforms.
When athletes earn spots at regional or national competitions, travel costs can become barriers to participation.
Many graduating seniors rely on BAF scholarships to take their next step after high school.

Your support strengthens Berkeley High athletics - investing in our coaches 9adults who mentor and guide our kids every day) and equipping student-athletes with the tools to compete, learn, and lead (on & off the field).

The Event Day Experience→

Golfers will spend a day on the beautiful Tilden Park Golf Course, enjoying a round of golf amidst the stunning Berkeley Hills scenery. The day will be filled with camaraderie, competition, and the chance to enjoy the serene atmosphere of one of the Bay Area's most picturesque courses.

After a spectacular day on the course in the Berkeley Hills, we’ll gather for dinner and recognition - including the opportunity to meet and hear from student-athletes and coaches whose programs benefit directly from this event.

These interactions offer a unique and inspiring glimpse into the lives and aspirations of the young athletes whose futures will be shaped by the generosity of those who participate. It’s an evening that not only celebrates golf, but also the impact of community support in empowering the next generation.
