Please support the Briarcliff Athletic Booster Club! We are here to support our student athletes by hosting tournaments, providing varsity letters and pins, sponsoring trips, providing need based scholarships, supporting senior day with flowers for parents, running concession stands, sponsoring speakers, and so much more. Our goal is to help our student athletes and parents have a great athletic experience and we need your help to do that!
Briarcliff High School has a long tradition of athletic excellence. Over 300 students participate in sports each season. We average about 10 students each year who go on to play in college and we have won many league, section and state titles across many different sports. Sports are a great way to teach our children about winning, losing, teamwork, leadership, and so many more life lessons. So we would like to ask each family who thinks they have a child who will be playing sports this year to donate to the Booster club through this Go Fund Me page. Any amount is appreciated! Thank you in advance for your support and GO BEARS!
