Cardinal's Club
How does the Cardinals’ Club support athletics at Fisher?
The Cardinals' Club was formed to generate financial support for all of St. John Fisher College’s athletic programs. Fisher has a long and proud tradition of developing student athletes who understand that both academics and athletics are an important part of the College experience. At Fisher, every student is encouraged to participate in sports-related activities. The College offers a number of options for those interested in athletic competition as well as physical fitness and year round recreation through intramural programs.

St. John Fisher College competes at the NCAA Division III level in football, basketball, baseball, cross-country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, men's lacrosse, women's lacrosse, and volleyball. A1ams, an active intramural program that draws about 85% of Fisher’s undergraduates during the academic year also utilizes its athletic facilities.
It is the philosophy of St. John Fisher College to admit fully-qualified students who can profit from the educational experience that the College offers. Although Fisher does not offer athletic scholarships, there are many ways that avid fans and supporters of the College’s sports programs can help student athletes. The only way you can support Fisher’s athletics is with funds raised through Cardinals’ Club. These funds will help defray the cost of new uniforms and team travel, as well as equipment needs for all of Fisher’s athletic teams and intramural participants.
Why is it important to join?
The Cardinals’ Club is the ONLY official sports booster club at Fisher. More than 85% of the current students utilize the athletic facilities at Fisher and every one of them will benefit from your support for the Cardinals’ Club. Fisher’s athletic facilities are superior in Division III athletics and as a result are also utilized by the Rochester community. Cardinals’ Club also needs volunteers, but without the monetary support from loyal alumni, friends, faculty, parents and staff, athletics at Fisher would not be able to continue its long history of success and excellence.
