Athletic Facilities

Retirees with valid Harvard ID cards have free access to the Blodgett Pool, the Malkin Athletic Center, and the Hemenway Gymnasium.

Spouses/partners of retirees and family members under age 26 may use the athletic facilities by adding a "plus-family membership" to the free membership of the retiree. The plus-family charge is the same for the families of retirees as for families of current employees (visit the Athletics Dept. website for costs). Plus-family memberships must be purchased in person at the Membership Office. A valid Harvard ID card is required at the time of purchase.

The Membership Office is located at:
Malkin Athletic Center
39 Holyoke Street
Cambridge, Mass.
Hours: Monday–Friday, 9 a.m.–5 p.m.
recmemberships@fas.harvard.edu

Retirees have access to the tennis courts (617-495-3454) and the squash courts at the same additional membership costs as active faculty and staff. Call the Membership Office for more information.
