Recreational & Sports Clubs For students who are interested in gathering, participating, or competing as a group in an activity and are not interested in an intercollegiate sport we offer Recreational & Sports Clubs. Rec & Sports Clubs vary in their competitive scope; some are instructional while others are highly competitive and compete on a regional and national level. These clubs are student run and have guidance from knowledgeable volunteer coaches and advisors. The Rec and Sports Club Council is the governing body for all of these clubs. The following are a list of active Recreational and Sports Clubs: Bass Fishing, Black Flame Dance Team, Dance Team, Disc Golf, Equestrian, Esports, Fencing, Men’s Golf, Ice Hockey, Men’s Lacrosse, Outdoors Club, Performing Dance Portmanteau (PDP), Quidditch, Men’s Rugby, Women’s Rugby, Men’s Soccer, Ultimate Frisbee and Men’s Volleyball. Students interested in creating a new club must petition the RSCC for admission. Group Exercise Group Exercise offers a professionally led, organized workout in a variety of formats and intensities. No experience or advanced registration is required. All sessions are on a first come, first served basis.

Eligibility Students interested in participating on an intercollegiate athletic team should contact the coach as soon as possible. Students must be cleared medically and academically before they may participate. All potential athletes must be full-time students enrolled in a minimum of 12 credits before they may even practice. Tryouts are not necessarily conducted in each sport. Incoming students must have been cleared through the NCAA Eligibility Center which requires an application, final high school transcripts, and SAT or ACT test scores. Initial eligibility will be determined through a sliding scale. Students who are not eligible as freshmen may be eligible to compete after completing 24 credits at the University. The initial eligibility center also requires amateurism certification. Athletic scholarships are offered in each sport based upon recommendations initiated by the coach and are renewable each year.
