Gate Fee's
Parents, please be aware that admission fees for the 2024-25 academic year have increased due to new pricing set by the Catholic High School League. The league-wide admission price is now $10 cash at the gate, driven by rising referee fees, which have increased by up to 80% in some cases. This pricing is mandated by the league, and BFC does not control these gate prices. However, attendees can pay a discounted rate of $8 by purchasing tickets in advance at Gofan.co. For families with multi-season athletes, purchasing an Athletic Pass may be a significant cost-saver, as it bypasses the by-event gate fee. To learn more about the Athletic Pass, please see the information below or contact Mike Maltese at maltese@bishopfoley.org. We appreciate your understanding and continued support of Venture Athletics. Thank you for cheering on our student-athletes!
