Celebrating Women’s History Month
Happy Women’s History Month, Wildcat Family! Celebrating Wildcat women who changed the game, left their mark, and paved way for future generations of Wildcats, including our 15 National Championship women’s teams, our Letterwomen on Arizona Athletics staff, and quotes from Wildcat Olympians that motivated them to be their best.
SAVE THE DATE: Arizona Softball Alumni Weekend
The A-Club Letterwinners Association is thrilled to announce that Softball Alumni Weekend is set for April 19-21, 2024. We look forward to having our Softball Letterwinners back in Tucson to celebrate 50 Years of Arizona Softball, cheer on our Wildcats when they beat ASU, and celebrate the legacy our Letterwinners have created.
50 Years of Arizona Softball
Arizona Athletics is celebrating 50 Years of Arizona Softball all season long, including decade recognitions for Softball Letterwinners. While these are not A-Club organized recognitions, Arizona Athletics will have a variety of unique elements, including a Letterwinner First Pitch and recognition from your seats for each decade of Arizona Softball at the games listed below.
SAVE THE DATE: Arizona Football Alumni Weekend
With all the momentum building behind Arizona Football and a new coaching staff in the house, the A-Club Letterwinners Association is happy to invite our Football Letterwinners back to Tucson for Football Alumni Weekend and Spring Game 2024. You can expect all the details for Football Alumni Weekend in the next few weeks as we finalize all our plans for the weekend. We appreciate your patience as we put together a great weekend of celebration and fun for our Football Letterwinner family!

Men’s Basketball Ring of Honor
Wildcats Back in the Building
Men’s Basketball Letterwinner and former coach Josh Pastner was Back in the Building to watch and comment on our Wildcats defeating the Oregon Ducks. Karen Geren, Gymnastics Letterwinner, was in McKale as the Gymcats dedicated their Cats vs. Cancer meet to her as she battles ovarian cancer.
Arizona Baseball Letterwinner and Arizona Diamondbacks Pitcher Kevin Ginkel returned to Hi Corbett to throw the first pitch for the UA vs. ASU series. We loved the energy Ginkel brought to Hi Corbett and we’re excited to support him through Spring Training!
