Student sports clubs
Creating community through sport
University of Idaho’s sports clubs provide competitive athletic opportunities for skilled athletes who wish to hone their craft against regional and/or national competition. These student-led organizations foster teamwork, leadership and community.
While some sports clubs, such as rugby, hockey and lacrosse require prior experience, many UIdaho sport clubs welcome walk-ons and members of all skill levels. You’ll find a space where newcomers can develop their abilities and seasoned athletes will enjoy a challenging and rewarding experience.
U of I’s Sport Clubs invite you to get involved, represent the Vandals and make lifelong connections. Fill the gap between casual play and varsity competition while staying active, engaged and connected to the campus community by competing in your favorite sports!
