Varsity sports at WCU are funded entirely by the University. They offer scholarships and NCAA DII
competitive play.
Sport Clubs are allocated a sum of money from the Student Government Association, they pay dues, and are entirely student run. There are varying costs and time commitments
depending on the club. Some Sport Clubs are nationally and regionally ranked and others
are more low key and just participate recreationally.
Intramurals consists of WCU peer vs. peer teams. There are many different offerings from one
day tournaments to 6 week seasons. There are no practices, the cost to play ranges
from $10 - $25 per team. Intramurals are the best way to get some exercise while meeting
other students and having fun with your friends!
Attending the fall involvement fair is the best way to connect with all 27 of our
sport clubs! You can contact any of the sport club’s executive boards by going to
their RamConnect page or by visiting the Campus Recreation website. The club’s executive boards are seasoned student members of the respective club
and can answer any questions you may have about joining!
Check out the full list of all of the sports clubs that WCU offers on the Sport Club tab on the Campus Recreation website!
If you do not see your sport club on the list, as a WCU student, you can contact the
Sport Club Graduate Assistant at
sportclubs@wcupa.edu
to find out how to start one.
The cost of dues and other fees related to sport clubs depends entirely on the sport.
Some sports that are offered have a higher cost in dues because of practice locations,
competitiveness, and travel commitment.
Most of our sport clubs practice twice per week and have competitions on the weekends.
Of course this commitment depends on the sport and which season they play in, where
they practice (on/off campus), and competitiveness.
There are some sport clubs that host tryouts. To find out if there are tryouts for
a specific sport club, please contact the
executive board of that specific sport club. Their information can be found on the Campus Recreation
website. Click on the sport club that you are interested in, and the contact info
will appear.
Visit the specific club’s
RamConnect page for information about club events. You can also find each sport club’s
executive board on the Campus Recreation website.
You cannot receive a scholarship for playing on a sport club. Sport clubs are funded
entirely through the club’s fundraising, dues, and an allocation from the
Student Government Association to help offset costs.
