Battle for the Hackley Cup 2026

Battle for the Hackley Cup

March 11–13

The Battle for the Hackley Cup returns March 11–13, bringing our community together in a friendly competition that celebrates Hackley athletics and school spirit. Thanks to two anonymous donors and the Hackley Alumni Association, all gifts will be matched up to $120,000!

🏆 Upper School Athletics Competition

Support the team that means the most to you by making a gift in its honor. Consider making your gift in the amount of your old jersey number — or a teammate’s — for extra fun. Every gift supports the Hackley Fund and strengthens the student experience across campus.

Thanks to $5,000 in prize funding from the Hackley Alumni Association, the teams with the highest participation will earn additional support for their programs:

• 🏆 Overall Participation Champion – $1,000

• 🥇🥈🥉 Top Boys’ & Girls’ Teams – $925 / $650 / $425

Last year, the Swim Team claimed the overall title. Which team will take home the Cup this year?

🎉 Lower & Middle School Grade Challenges

Lower and Middle School families are in on the action, too!

• Lower School: The grade with the highest parent participation will win a Fun Day of their choice in P.E., plus a special recess activity with Varsity athletes.

• Middle School: The grade with the highest parent participation will win a Bonus Friday Activity Night.

Every gift counts. Every participant makes a difference.

Join the challenge, support your team or grade, and help strengthen the Hackley experience for all students.
