A Club Sport is a student organization designed to serve student interests in different sports at the Non-NCAA level. These sports can be competitive or recreational. Clubs compete with other clubs, organizations, colleges, and universities. Financial commitments are met primarily through student sponsored fund-raising events. Each club is student initiated and administered. Sport clubs operate within the Office of Student Activities and Organizations and report directly to the assistant director of club sports.
