High school sports in California are no longer just about showing up and playing; they now come with a high price tag.

From supplies, transportation, safety equipment, referees, tournament fees, uniforms, and facility maintenance, the true cost of offering high-quality athletic programs quickly adds up. California school districts often don’t fund high school sports due to budget constraints and a prioritization of academic programs. While sports are considered valuable for student development, they are often funded through a combination of booster donations, fundraising, and participation fees, rather than relying solely on district budgets. 

At Acalanes High School, we pride ourselves on fielding competitive teams and offering students a safe, enriching, and character-building sports experience. But here’s the truth: the district budget doesn’t come near to covering the full cost of running our athletics program. That’s where Acalanes Sports Boosters comes in.
