About the Club
In the year 1939 Christian Brothers' spirited football team squared off against arch rival Sacramento High in their annual gridiron showdown at Hughes Stadium.
The results were disappointing, to say the least. As time ran out in the fourth quarter, the scoreboard read: Sac High Dragons 45 Christian Brothers Gaels 0 The boys from Sac High seemed to have better equipment and more coaches --- all fueled by city resources. To remedy the situation, a few Brothers Backers got together and passed around a hat. When all the coins were counted, twenty dollars and twenty five cents were deposited in the fledgling bank account of the newly named La Salle Club. Over the years, the La Salle Club has grown in finances and membership. It is the purpose of The La Salle Club to collaborate with the school to fund projects outside the scope of the school's operational budget. Some of the recent La Salle Club investments are manifested in the renovations to the baseball fields and the new scoreboard for the woman's softball team. In addition to membership, The La Salle Club is funded by two events: The Baseball Hall of Fame Dinner and The Coaches and Officials Night. These benefits pay homage to the rich historical traditions of Christian Brothers' athletics and service to the community. By joining The La Salle Club, you help honor those before you while investing in the student athlete of today. To read a collection of entertaining articles about the club, click on the file below:
