About The C-Club

ABOUT US
C-Club is a program that provides all former University of Cincinnati Letterwinners the opportunity to maintain a lifelong connection with Bearcat Athletics.  C-Club membership includes former Letterwinners who participated as varsity athletes, spirit squad members from cheer and dance, managers, trainers, and selected individuals who made significant contributions to the program while at UC as a student.  We are an exclusive group who understand the commitment and spirit that it takes to be called Bearcats. Because of your participation and achievements as a former Letterwinner, you will forever be a part of the great legacy of University of Cincinnati Athletics.


This organization originated in 1935 and has seen many changes over the years.  C-Club moved under the leadership of the athletic department in the summer of 2015.
