The #StepUpOurGame Giving Campaign gives Bishop McNamara alumni, families, and fans a chance to directly impact all our athletics programs by raising funds for a weight room, locker rooms, and other needs for Bishop McNamara Athletics.
Every gift made to the #StepUpOurGame Giving Campaign contributes to the formation and development of Bishop McNamara student-athletes through providing them with the best facilities and equipment necessary for athletics success.
#StepUpOurGame Giving Campaign provides several special recognition opportunities for generous supporters of BMHS Athletics including the main gymnasium, perhaps the most used space on campus, as well as our locker rooms and weight room to benefit coaches and student-athletes today and better recruit those for years to come. Please see below these special recognition opportunities possible through the #StepUpOurGame Giving Campaign!
Please know that our scholar-athletes are not recipients of the donations, and funds are not earmarked for a specific scholar-athlete's use. All
Your gift to the #StepUpOurGame will make a lasting difference in the lives of our student-athletes and for the future success of Bishop McNamara Athletics. Please give!
Thank you to all our generous donors who made these new varsity team rooms possible! The student-athletes love them and these new spaces would not have been possible without the kindness and commitment of our alumni, parents, business partners, and friends of Bishop McNamara Athletics. You make a difference! It is with sincere gratitude that we give thanks to everyone who made these rooms possible!
There are still varsity team room lockers available to purchase, but they are going fast, so please make sure to secure your varsity team room locker today. If you know of alumni, family, or friends of Bishop McNamara Athletics who would be interested in this naming opportunity, please be sure to share this campaign them. Please contact the Advancement Office at (301)-735-8401 at extension 295 or 158 for Ms. Mammano or Dr. Van der Waag to discuss purchasing and payment options.
Go Mustangs!!!

We want to thank Bishop McNamara Athletics Boosters who have pledged support to name the remaining locker room. We thank the Bishop McNamara Athletics Boosters who have been and remain outstanding supporters and generous benefactors of Bishop McNamara.
