11th Berg and Seeger Classic

April 14, 2018 Welcome to the Land of Orange and Black, I would like to personally welcome all of you, 240 Student-Athletes from 22 schools, Coaches, Athletic Directors, Administrators, Sponsors and USADTF representatives to the 11th Berg and Seeger Classic that is being hosted by the California School for the Deaf.

As we all spend time together this weekend, let us honor two special coaches, Thomas O. Berg and Ruth Seeger. Thomas and Ruth were part of the first USA Team that participated in the 1957 Deaflympics. They had coached for over 85 years combined and coached numerous National Champions, All-Americans, Deaflympians. Many of their athletes broke many national and world records. The Berg and Seeger Classic was established to honor these coaches for their outstanding coaching and contributions to track and field for Deaf athletes for so many years. Most importantly, let’s recognize the Berg and Seeger Classic planning committee for their dedication and hard work in making this event a historical one. Planning a big athletic event is not an easy feat especially when we are competing at another facility, James Logan High School. We appreciate James Logan High School for allowing us to utilize their Track and Field facility for this special meet. During your stay, enjoy your time in the Bay Area getting acquainted with old friends and making new ones. I look forward to witnessing national records being broken by the student athletes that are competing today. The event signal just went off. With Eagle Pride, Clark Brooke, Ed.S. Superintendent California School for the Deaf

11th Berg and Seeger Classic

Colleagues and Athletes, The California School for the Deaf is ecstatic on being your hosts for the 11th

Berg and Seeger Classic! This year has become even more meaningful as many new schools have joined us all the way in the left coast with two goals in mind - participating in high-level competition and embracing the Deaf culture. There is no finer way to do so at what has become the largest Deaf Interscholastic

Athletic event ever! We must first thank our sponsors – NIKE, Eastbay, Sorenson VRS, Gallaudet University, National Technical Institute for the Deaf, and Route 66 Promotions. Without their contributions, we would never have been able to have the amenities that we currently have for you this weekend! CSD cherishes our unique relationships with each one of you and you all have helped become a part of history. We must also thank our 20 committees for helping the Athletics Department plan in various areas to help arrange this major event. Their ORANGE and BLACK spirit has never been more evident with their willingness to provide you all with the best experience possible. Thank you James Logan High School for having us at your beautiful facility and the United States Deaf Track and Field for your continued support to Deaf youth. Finally, please give the Cabinet and the Administrators at the California School for the Deaf a big “thank you” this weekend for always supporting the Athletics Department and promoting Deaf interscholastic competitions as an integral part of our students’ upbringing. So now, it is with my great honor and enthusiasm to say let’s play, have fun, display great sportsmanship, wear your school colors proudly, and make new friends!
