The NYAC has a long and proud history of producing Olympians, World Team Members, and National Champions.

We are willing to partner with the right athletes to achieve a common goal of athletic success.

The New York Athletic Club is one of the exclusive athletic clubs that was established in the United States in the latter part of the nineteenth century. Founded in 1868 by Henry Buermeyer, John Babcock and William Curtis, the club's premise was "growth and development of amateur sport in the United States." The NYAC organized the first US championships in boxing, wrestling, and outdoor track and field, and brought the sport of fencing to the US. Today, the Club offers many sports, including rowing, wrestling, boxing, judo, fencing, basketball, rugby union, soccer, tennis, handball, squash, snooker, and more.

The club operates two facilities, one in New York City and the other on Travers Island which straddles the border of New Rochelle and Pelham Manor, New York. The City House, located at 180 Central Park South, occupies one of the finest locations in the city. A large, cavernous building built in the early twentieth century, it offers panoramic views of Central Park and is the athletic as well as the social hub of the Club. The 24-floor facility includes two restaurants, a cocktail lounge, library, ballroom, billiard room, meeting rooms, and eight floors of guest rooms for members and club guests. The athletic training floors include a swimming pool, basketball courts, boxing rings, a fencing and wrestling room, judo floor, and squash courts.

NYAC members have won 123 Olympic gold medals, 40 silver medals, and 52 bronze medals. Thirty-nine NYAC olympians took home five gold medals, one silver medal, and five bronze medals at the 2004 Olympics in Athens.
