What is the A-Club?

We aim to encourage and promote lifelong connections with Arizona teammates, coaches, and staff, while upholding the tradition and heritage of Arizona Athletics and building pride in the “A” that only letterwinners understand.

NOVEMBER WRAP-UP


November was a packed month for Letterwinners. We started off with Homecoming on November 2. Over 300 Letterwinners came to celebrate with the A-Club Tailgate and the afternoon game vs. Oregon State. We recognized Emeritus Letterwinners (those who played a sport 1969 or before), the 1979 Fiesta Bowl, 1989 Copper Bowl, and 2009 Holiday Bowl Teams, along with all Football Letterwinners on-field. Three individuals received awards for their service and dedication to Arizona Athletics.

Rocky LaRose Service Award

Derek Hall

Despite the outcome of the game, Letterwinners were able to connect with old teammates and enjoy their time back at the U of A!
