What is the difference between competitive clubs and performance and recreational clubs?
Competitive clubs are primarily traditional sport teams that play against fellow institutions, traveling off campus and hosting games on or off campus. Instructional and recreational clubs are largely based on campus. Individuals may join a sports club to learn a new skill, such as fencing. Individuals may choose to enter open tournaments. However, participants in these sports club may decide to never compete, and remain non-competitive, and more performance based.
