A club sport is a campus group that provides recreation, competition, and/or instruction in sport-related activities. Club Sports provide an excellent opportunity to develop leadership skills. There are ten club sports, all run primarily on student initiative and leadership.
Canisius College Club Sport teams bridge the gap between intramurals and varsity athletics, allowing you to enjoy extramural competition without the pressures of highly structured sports. Clubs are student directed, with members being required to assume responsibility for creating their own practice and competition schedules, organizing travel arrangements and fundraising activities, and also budget and monitor the club’s finances. Most club teams compete in leagues against other local and regional teams, and some teams even compete in national competitions.
