Davidson College Club Sports

A club sport is a student organization formed by individuals with a common interest in a sport activity and exists to promote and develop interest in that particular sport. Clubs may be instructional, recreational, competitive or a combination.

Students are responsible for organizing, funding, regulating and scheduling activities for these club teams under the direction of the Assistant Director of Physical Education and Recreation. Involvement by faculty and staff advisors is essential.
