Tulane Club Sports are student organizations that are geared toward instructional, recreational or competitive play. Club sports are recognized campus organizations that are run by the students. Each club has regular practice times and some compete in local or national leagues..

It is best to contact the club president for information on joining, dues, practices, etc. Please refer to the Club Sports Directory for the appropriate contact information.

Club Sports start practicing the third week of the Fall and Spring semesters. Most clubs will accept participants throughout the school year. Please contact the club officers for more information.

Clubs determine semester or annual dues based on their constitution, club leadership, and expenses incurred by the club. Tulane University also provides financial assistance through funds from Undergraduate Student Government and the Department of Campus Recreation. Besides dues and the university allocation, clubs are required to host fundraisers to support their travel and equipment costs..

Intramural sports are set leagues where you play games against other Tulane students. You can get friends from your hall, residence hall, etc and sign up an intramural team before the deadline. Club Sports you can join anytime after paying dues and signing a waiver.

Club Sports offer opportunities to learn or play the sport through regular practices, and competitive clubs play against other universities for state or national titles. Club Sports are a great opportunity to continue playing sports in college even if it is not on a varsity level.
