Becoming a Club
The Department of Recreational Sports acknowledges that other sport-related clubs might wish to seek recognition in the Sport Club Association. Due to the limited resources available to the Sport Club Association, it may not be feasible to add new clubs. Therefore, student organizations must meet and maintain the following minimum criteria before applying for Sport Club status:
- Must remain recognized through student activities
- Must be an active member of a National Governing Organization
- Must have regularly scheduled practices and club meetings
- Must compete in a minimum of three collegiate division competitions per year
- Maintain financial stability. Every club must have a yearly operating budget.
- Represent Texas A&M University at events hosted by other collegiate institutions
- Must have a minimum of 10 active members, unless in team sports where the minimum number required to compete is larger than 10. Then the club must maintain that requirement.
- Must be a recognized student organization for a minimum of two years
- Meet the above requirements for a minimum of two consecutive years
- Must demonstrate leadership transition beyond founding members
Fill out a Sport Clubs Association Application if you would like to apply. Applications can be submitted to the Sport Clubs Office.
