What are Sport Clubs?
ASU Sport Clubs offers students competition, instruction, and recreation in more than 32 active Sport Clubs. The program serves as a competitive alternative to intramural sports, physical education, and intercollegiate athletics by offering team members professional coaching, league travel, and participation in national tournaments. Although some clubs remain solely recreational, most are highly competitive. Club privileges include the use of the Arizona State name, a small budget allotted by the Sport Club Association and the Department of Recreational Sports, and athletic facilities when available. Most clubs supplement their budget through membership fees and fund raising.

A sport club is a recognized student organization that exists to promote and develop interest in a particular sport or physical activity. A club may be instructional, recreational or competitive or may involve any combination. Sport clubs are strictly voluntary. Involvement in a sport club enhances a student’s collegiate experience and contributes to the student’s overall education. Sport clubs are officially sponsored by the Office of Campus Recreation and the Student Activities Office and are supported through Student Activity Fees.
