What is a Sport Club?

A sport club is a registered student organization that has been formed for the purpose of educating, competing, and/or participating in a particular activity or sport. Many sport clubs exist because of the desire to continue participation in a sport by students other than varsity athletes. Each club’s level of competition or activity is unique, and is dependent on club leadership.  Sport clubs are student-initiated, student-led and student-managed, providing an opportunity for the development of leadership and other life skills and to contribute to the overall college experience.
