Java JUnit: Test suite code to run before any test classes

I have a test suite class:

@RunWith(Suite.class)
@Suite.SuiteClasses({
    GameMasterTest.class,
    PlayerTest.class,
})
public class BananaTestSuite { 

What annotation do I need to use to make a function in this class run before any of the classes containing actual tests? Right now, I'm doing this, and it works, but it's not as readable as it could be:

static {
    try {
        submitPeelAction = new Player(new GameMaster(1)).getClass().getDeclaredMethod("submitPeelAction");
    } catch (SecurityException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (NoSuchMethodException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    submitPeelAction.setAccessible(true);
}

I tried @BeforeClass but it didn't work.
