Sport Clubs FAQs

FAQs

Some Sports Clubs do require tryouts. For more competitive sports there are usually tryouts because there are only a certain number of players allowed on the court/field. For sports without maximum number requirements there usually aren't tryouts. Contact dominguezm@sonoma.edu(link sends e-mail) or sports.clubs@sonoma.edu(link sends e-mail).

The benefits for being in a Sports Club are that the Club gets to reserve a space on campus, they are allowed to apply for funding through the Associated Students, and they get to compete under the Sonoma State University name.

Sport club participants not only enjoy the rewards of athletic competition, but they also gain skills in collaboration, leadership, problem-solving, and financial management. Sport Clubs run like an NCAA team and are much more involved than Intramural Sports.

Sport Clubs are student-run organizations. They practice and compete against college club teams locally, regionally, and nationally. SSU has 15 Sport Club teams. Sonoma State Athletics is an NCAA Division II member and part of the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA). SSU has 11 sponsored sports in the CCAA.

Sports Clubs provide an alternative to University Sports and intramurals. Basically, find a group of people who love the same sport that you do and play! You can be as competitive or as non-competitive as YOU choose. Everything is student-run, so it's really all up to you!
