We are not accepting new applications at this time.

Following a comprehensive two-year review of the Athletics & Recreation Club Sports portfolio that was completed in spring of 2025, we recently implemented structural changes to ensure the long-term sustainability and alignment of sport programming. As these updates took effect on April 30, 2025, we have implemented a two-year freeze on applications for new clubs to allow time for transitions and evaluations of these changes. New applications may be considered May 1, 2027. Please visit this page for any updates on this process.
