Fall Classic Continues to Support Financial Assistance Programme
On October 2, 2025, passionate golfers from the St. Michael’s College School (SMCS) community—including alumni, parents, and friends—gathered for a sold-out edition of the annual Fall Classic Golf Tournament. Held once again at the scenic Eagles Nest Golf Club, the event combined camaraderie, competition, and a shared commitment to supporting the school’s Financial Assistance Programme.
This year’s tournament was a resounding success, raising over $80,000—the highest amount ever contributed through this event. These funds will help ensure that a St. Mike’s education remains accessible to qualified students.
“Every year, the St. Mike’s Alumni Golf Tournament – the Fall Classic – brings back great memories and even better company,” says Tim Pal ’02. “It’s a fantastic way to reconnect with fellow alumni while supporting the Financial Assistance Programme and future generations of St. Mike’s students.”
Alexander Cassar ’99, SMCS Chief Financial Officer, highlighted the impact of the Financial Assistance Programme and how it supports the young men at SMCS during the tournament luncheon.
“It is important to come together and continually grow bursary programme resources to ensure SMCS remains accessible to all qualified and motivated prospective students,” says Cassar. “This event plays a significant role in ensuring a St. Mike’s education remains possible for even more young men.”
The tournament concluded with an exciting three-way tie at 62, with the team of Nick Migliore ’87, Michael Munroe, Michael Fama, and Daniel Valvona emerging victorious after a tiebreaker retrogression.
“I wanted to express my sincere appreciation for the extraordinary Fall Classic Golf Tournament held at Eagles Nest for the St. Michael’s College School Financial Assistance Programme,” says Nick Migliore ’86. “It was a true pleasure to support such a meaningful cause and to witness the great work being done through this initiative. The event was not only exceptionally well organized but also brought back a wonderful sense of nostalgia for our alma mater. It was a perfect day—beautiful weather, great company, and the ideal opportunity to reconnect with fellow St. Mike’s friends while contributing to a worthy cause.”
