Sport Clubs
The following clubs promote sport, recreation, and the outdoors
and are a great way to get involved in informal activities and make
new friends. Stop by the main office in SpHC 153 for information about
when and where clubs are meeting, and get involved!
Clubs are registered student organizations that are self-administered
and run under the direction of club members, advisors, and RSOP. Members benefit from developing skills in the activity, administration, organization, public relations, marketing, and fund raising. Membership costs vary from club to club.
