HOW TO START A CLUB SPORT
Any group of students may start a new club sport organization, provided it meets the following criteria:

All Club Sports are to be chartered and approved as recognized student organization.
Undergraduate students, Graduate students, and Faculty and Staff of Emporia State University are eligible for membership in Club Sports.
Student members must be enrolled in at least seven (7) hours as verified by the ESU Registrar.
Formation of a written constitution and bylaws in accordance with guidelines.
Sufficient membership interested in the sport-at least 10 members must join to receive group sponsorship by the Recreation Services Department. If a competitive team fields more than 10 people to participate at one time, then the club sport must have at least that many members.
