The Club Sports Program is pleased to announce that we have lifted the cap and are now taking applications for new Club Sport teams to join the program!
Please understand that significant administrative responsibilities accompany status as a Club Sport. The Club Sports Program has limited staffing, finances, and resources. Considering that, we weigh each application heavily against our resources, the current Club Sports, and the needs of the student population. Although applications are accepted at any time throughout the year, applications will only be reviewed towards the end of the spring quarter. You will be notified of the Club Sports Staff’s decision over the summer. If approved, your Club may begin operating as a Club Sport the following fall. By filling out this application, you demonstrate that you understand and accept these terms and conditions.
Complete Applications are due by
8 a.m. on Wednesday, May 10, 2023
All Application Google Docs and sheets have "view access". In order to complete your Application, you will need to:
- Make a copy of the Application Google Doc and supporting Google Docs linked within the Application and add them to your personal Google Drive.
- Rename the Google Docs in your team name and edit/complete the Google Docs and supporting Google Docs and Google Sheets.
- Email the Assistant Director for Club Sports Kathryn Hutchings at krhutchings@scu.edu and with a link to a Google Folder where you saved all your completed Google Docs and Google Sheets re-share edit access of the Google Folder. The Google Docs and Google Sheets within the folder should be accessible by Kathryn with edit access.
Please email the Assistant Director for Club Sports if you have any questions about the Application process.
A successful Club Sport Officer knows and understands all Club Sport policies and procedures.
