The ADC Purpose

The Auburn Diamond Club supports development of the Auburn University baseball program and of the University's fine young players. The ADC encourages game attendance, sponsors hospitality activities, a fall Coaches banquet, and a pre-season Team Recognition banquet; away travel is facilitated, and an internet news network is provided to keep members informed. The Club assists the program in any approved manner. Approximately 50% of the ADC budget goes to direct financial support of the baseball program.

History

The Auburn Diamond Club was founded during the 2001 season. The founding intent was to gather together baseball fans to support the AU effort. The ADC has grown from an initial group of 12 fans to an association of more than 400 members. A first step was to meet with former Head Coach Steve Renfroe. He offered his support and outlined his objectives: make Plainsman Park the best venue for college baseball in America, qualify to host regional and super-regional tournaments, and get to the College World Series.

Structure

The ADC is an Alabama non-profit corporation which operates under the supervision of Coach Slater and the Athletic Department. ADC is guided by a Board of Directors elected by the membership. The annual meeting is held in conjunction with the annual Players Recognition Banquet.
