Nestled in the heart of Court Complex, Meerut — a symbol of tradition, sportsmanship and community for over nine decades. Built on the founding motto of "Service to Society."
The story of Alexander Athletic Club began even before its formal establishment. The land on which the Club now stands was once home to a cricket ground, started and organised by Mr I.U. Alexander, I.C.S., the then Collector of Meerut — after whom the Club is named.
Sometime later, Mr K.N. Banerjee, a prominent member of the Meerut Bar, along with Mr J.P. Asthana, persuaded Mr E.H.H. Edye to permit a tennis club to be started alongside the cricket ground. Mr Banerjee and Col. Asthana are thus regarded as the founding fathers of Alexander Athletic Club.
"The Club was formally inaugurated on 14th March 1932 by Mr H.S. Crosthwaite, I.C.S., the then Commissioner of the Meerut Division."
Alexander Athletic Club is administered by an elected managing committee, with office bearers serving a term of two years, elected by approximately 1,350 members.
