Berkeley High School has a robust athletic program supporting more then 1400 student athletes playing on 53 teams (freshman, JV, and varsity) in 29 boys and girls sports. The Berkeley Athletic Fund (BAF) was formed in 1985 in response to budgetary cutbacks to the athletic department. BAF is made up of parents of athletes–current and alumni–and community members who share a special interest in supporting Berkeley High School’s sports program. We have been raising funds ever since 1985 to supplement the BHS Athletic Program, and now we are needed just to keep the program at its current level.

The mission of the Berkeley Athletic Fund (BAF), a non-profit volunteer organization, is to promote athletic and academic excellence and enhance the safety and competitiveness of our sports programs. BAF provides financial assistance and other means of support to our athletic department and its student-athletes and coaches. It is our belief that a strong and successful athletic program promotes an atmosphere of achievement in the entire school community
