Aggie student-athletes are everything

FROM THE DESK OF:
UC Davis Athletics

Dear Davis Community,

As the Director of Athletics at UC Davis, I am excited to invite you to join us for a year of thrilling athletic events on our campus, featuring our 25 varsity sports.

Our athletic program goes beyond competition at the Division I level; it embodies community, spirit, and pride. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to our games, I encourage you to support our student-athletes as they showcase their dedication and skill. Over 35% of our student-athletes are involved in STEM majors, so you’ll be watching future engineers, doctors, scientists, and other professionals proudly representing our top 10 public university.

Attending our athletic events offers a chance to connect with fellow community members, students, alumni, and faculty. It’s an opportunity to rally behind our athletes, celebrate our shared Aggie Pride, and create lasting memories with friends and family. We are committed to providing a safe and welcoming environment for all attendees, upholding the highest standards of sportsmanship and inclusivity.

Your presence, whether cheering from the sidelines or participating in pre-game festivities, makes a positive impact on our coaches and student-athletes. Let’s come together to make this year one of the most vibrant seasons in UC Davis Athletics history. I look forward to seeing you at our home games, where we’ll proudly showcase the talent and determination of the Aggies.
