In order to ensure that all Cunha students have access to middle school sports, Boys & Girls Club of the Coastside has assumed responsibility for all Cunha Athletics. Why do Cunha Athletics matter? We asked Cunha alums to share their stories. Click here to read their powerful responses.
BGCC is committed to the exhibition of sportsmanlike and ethical behaviors in and around all athletic contests. All contests must be safe, courteous, fair, controlled, and orderly for all athletes and fans alike. See the BGCC Athletic Policy 2024-25 FINAL for our complete Code of Conduct.
Cunha participates in the Art David Athletic League, which consists of local middle schools from Half Moon Bay, San Mateo, Redwood City, Belmont, San Carlos, and Palo Alto. Learn more at the Art David Athletic League website.
BGCC introduced me to a lot of sports. I got to try flag football, volleyball, golf, tennis, and track. They always made sure I had the equipment I needed and great coaches.
