WELCOME

Arizona Athletics is a family of champions and home to some of the country's premier student-athletes and sports programs. Next to our student-athletes and coaches, it is the support of our fans - people just like you - that has the greatest impact on our program. Whether it is the sporting events you attend with your family, the season tickets you enjoy with your friends, or the contributions you make to the Wildcat Club, I would like to thank you for your support.

In 2003-04, the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics became 100 percent self-sufficient in order to assist with the ever-increasing financial strain faced by the University of Arizona. We continue to be financially independent of the University and with your support will maintain and embrace this principle.

In order to maintain Arizona’s presence among the nation's elite programs and to provide the necessary resources to ensure Arizona's student-athletes have the opportunity to achieve their full athletic and academic potential, we must increase the unrestricted dollars contributed directly to Athletics through our Annual Giving program. There are several ways to give, and we invite you to read more at How to Contribute to Arizona Athletics.

On behalf of the more than 475 student-athletes who proudly attend and compete for the University of Arizona, thank you for being part of our family.

Bear Down,
