What is the Panther Club?
The Panther Club is Adelphi University's primary organization for providing direct support to all men's and women's athletic programs. The Clubs' goals are simple: to generate support that is needed by our teams to be regionally and nationally competitive; to provide a focal point for students, faculty, staff, administrators, parents, and the community to rally around; and to create an "esprit de corps" between members.

Club members will be active participants in enhancing the image and spirit of the University's athletic programs. Members will have ample opportunities to exchange ideas and provide leadership as Adelphi moves ahead with increased excellence in programs and facilities.

Who can join?
Annual membership is from September 1 through August 31. Contributions start with our basic membership fee of $50, and advance upwards. Donations can be unrestricted or designated to a specific athletic team or event. The Club provides alumni, friends, parents, businesses and organizations with an excellent opportunity to help underwrite various aspects of our present athletic program.
