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.

Though less intense than NCAA-level collegiate sports, club sports require immense levels of responsibility and leadership from their players, especially since they are primarily run by college students.

Unlike varsity athletics, club sports do not receive formal recruiting slots or funding from the University. But some Tier A club sports, including fencing, squash and rugby, have relationships with the Office of Admission that allow informal recruiting to take place, Silverman said.

Club teams are more competitive and require tryouts to join. Club sports teams may be organized by different academic schools within the college, fraternities/sororities, housing units, and various interest clubs or groups. If you end up on a team, you'll work with other skilled student-athletes and a coach.

Collegiate club sports differ from NCAA sports in the way that they are almost entirely paid for by students through student fees, generally from $50 for certain sports up to $1,500 a year for more expensive sports such as ice hockey.
