Financial Support  

Winter sports are well under way, and coaches are finalizing budgets for the season.  Player donations are looking meager, which puts programs at risk.  Please make your student-athlete’s donation today on Cal’s Future Fund site.  Contributions may be made via credit card in one lump sum or broken down into two increments online or paid by cash or check to Trisa Kent in the main office.  

Why is a player donation requested?  

Much like rec or comp sport leagues from years' past, there are significant operation costs at the high school level, too.  Team expenditures vary by sport and may include the following: buses, equipment for training, loaned gear or uniforms, sanitation supplies, hydration stations, tournament or meet fees, referees, coaches’ stipends, and more. Fundraisers and donations determine the vitality of sports programs because they’re not backed by monetary contributions from the district or state level. Player donations are essential!  

When and where is the donation collected?  

Ideally the player donation is made as soon as a student-athlete makes a team.  Coaches make mention of this step in their parent meeting. However, if you are new to athletics at Cal or miss the meeting, you may not be aware of the process. Think of registration and participation in a sport as a three-step process. Step 1 is the Academic Clearance. Step 2 is the try-out for sports with cuts. Step 3 is the player donation.  Remember you may contribute by credit card, cash, or check in one sum or two increments. Neglecting to make a contribution creates a true hardship for the program, so families are encouraged to contribute fully or as they are able within the initial week or two of season kick-off.   

Please visit this link today to do your part! Don’t expect reminders from coaches or team parents as they are not privy to the list of donors. This is the reminder for the Winter season. So, if you're a parent of a soccer player, wrestler, or basketball player, it's time to come together as a community and support our student-athletes. 

Good luck to all of our athletes! Thank you, parents, for your support. Go Grizzlies!
