Dear Wildcat Fans,
Starting with the 2023-24 men’s basketball season, priority sections in the lower bowl of Belk Arena will require a per seat donation to the Wildcat Excellence Fund. The Wildcat Excellence Fund was established as a part of a priority season ticket model to put Davidson more in line with our conference and national peers with funds directly enhancing Davidson’s scholar-athlete experience by increasing expendable scholarships and operating budgets for our 21 athletic programs.
We understand that this model is a change and our intent is not to over burden our loyal fans and supporters. We understand our fans operate within budgets and finite resources which is why we will continue to offer pricing options for every fan and household. For reference, our current season ticket and Fast Break Club pricing is still in the bottom half of the Atlantic 10.
Thank you for your continued support and passion for Davidson Basketball and Davidson Athletics.
Go ‘Cats!
-- Chris Clunie '06, Director of Athletics
