Young Cats Club

Boys and girls ages 17 and under are invited to take part in a series of Young Cats Club events throughout the 2019-20 school year. United Capital, the event’s signature sponsor, is partnering with Linfield College Athletics to host an interactive community series that includes skill games and post-event autograph sessions.

It’s a unique opportunity for kids to experience in person what it’s like to attend a Linfield athletic event and interact with college student-athletes. A total of 15 Young Cats Club events are planned covering every collegiate sport Linfield offers.

The first Young Cats Club event is Saturday, Sept. 28, at Michelbook Country Club. Participants should arrive by 10 a.m.

After each contest, Young Cats Club attendees can meet and gather autographs from Wildcat student-athletes.

Admission to all designated Young Cats Club events is free. Every YCC participant will receive a free T-shirt and special autograph book.

Kids who attend a minimum of eight designated Young Cats Club events and collect at least one student-athletes autograph from any eight sports are eligible to enter an end-of-year drawing for a valuable prize.
