Club Sports provide an opportunity for the Saint Louis University students to participate in competitive activities. Competitive Sport Clubs compete against Midwest colleges and University teams. The level of competition varies for each club. The level of competition falls between intramural sports and varsity play. All clubs offer opportunities for all levels of experience and expertise. The beginner as well as the experienced competitor is welcome. Recreational Clubs are organized and administered by students elected by their membership. This provides an excellent opportunity for students to receive valuable leadership experience. Each club has a faculty advisor, who is responsible for guidance to the clubs. Most clubs utilize volunteer coaching who provide practice and game direction.

Club sports operate under the direction of the Department of Campus Recreation. Each club must register with the Student Government Association and the Department of Campus Recreation. For more information about Club Sports contact Sam Kelner at kelnersm@slu.edu.
